The briefing will examine the continuing humanitarian and human rights consequences of the crisis in Gaza and the broader impact of Israel’s occupation across the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem, one year after the ceasefire in Gaza entered into force.
The discussion will explore the cumulative effects of settlement expansion, forced displacement, dispossession, violence, torture, and restrictions on access to essential services, education, and sustainable development.
The briefing will feature presentations by Ms. Francesca Albanese, Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian Territory occupied since 1967; Ms. Farida Shaheed, Special Rapporteur on the right to education; Mr. Surya Deva, Special Rapporteur on the right to development; and Mr. Srinivasan Muralidhara, Chair of the Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem, and Israel.
