Our statement on today's direct action against Maynooth University's hosting of British Ambassador Paul Johnston on campus. While ignoring calls to take meaningful action in this university, the president platformed a representative of a complicit state. 👇👇 drive.google.com/file/d/19qSFN-…


As the British ambassador was pontificating from a pulpit in Maynooth University he was interrupted by students who read aloud the names of Palestinians massacred in the genocide. Students were immediately shut down and man-handled, before being silenced and kicked out by security.

Well done Maynooth BDS for disrupting President's Distinguished Ambassador Lecture, given by British Ambassador to Ireland Paul Johnston, in protest at British government's participation in the ongoing Israeli genocide


Our joint statement with Maynooth BDS - 14 months into Israeli genocide, on world human rights day, it is insulting that a seminar exploring the concept of "settler-indigeneity in the West Bank" was hosted in the Department of Anthropology, Maynooth University


We cannot allow our universities to become vehicles for the normalisation of Israeli occupation and genocide. Excellent statement Maynooth BDS and Academics for Palestine Maynooth.

Academic freedom cannot be deployed to serve settler-colonial occupation, apartheid and genocide. Maynooth University


Brendan Ciarán Browne on the response to genocide in Gaza from academia. 'In the face of unfathomable Palestinian loss and suffering, academics who chose silence during a genocide must find their voice and embrace the academic boycott in pursuit of justice'. rundale.org/2025/01/30/out…
