Current Action: Combatting Israeli Apartheid
Israel has been declared an apartheid state by the UN Special Rapporteur, Michael Lynk, Amnesty, Human Rights Watch, and the Israeli B'tselem.
As part of our ongoing campaigning
to combat Israeli apartheid, Sadaka organised its Second High-Level Forum in Dublin on 29 March 2022.
The purpose of the forum was to create awareness of the final report of Professor Michael Lynk, the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territory occupied since 1967. This report to the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva concerned the breach by Israel of the prohibition against apartheid in international law.
