On 29th July 2024, Law for Palestine, in collaboration with Jadaliyya, hosted a panel discussion titled “Turning Ink Into Action: Unpacking the ICJ Advisory Opinion on Palestine and the Next Steps.” The panel analysed the International Court of Justice’s (ICJ) crucial and historic Advisory Opinion that addressed the unlawful character of the prolonged Israeli occupation of the Palestinian Territory and outlined the expected measures to end the occupation, including the responsibility of third states and UN agencies.
Moderated by Anisha Patel, Board Member at Law for Palestine, the event featured three experts: Ardi Imseis, Professor of International law, Queen’s University and Legal Counsel for the State of Palestine in the ICJ Advisory Opinion (2024); Michael Lynk, Associate Professor at the Faculty of Law at Western University and the Former UN Special Rapporteur for the Occupied Palestinian Territory; and Shahd Hammouri, Lecturer in International Law at Kent University and legal advisor at Law for Palestine.
