Two members of the Third Generation, Dr. Shani Bar Tuvia and Mia Hasenson-Gross, will be talking to us about their work in human rights and how it connects with their heritage as members of the Third Generation.
Dr. Shani Bar Tuvia works for Physicians for Human Rights Israel, the biggest human rights organisation in Israel, in which Jews and Palestinians work together to ensure the right to health for all people living under Israel's control. Shani works in the department responsible for Israeli residents and citizens. Her PhD focussed on the interaction between Israel's asylum and refugee policies and the policies of other so called "Western" states. Her MA was in international relations.
Mia Hasenson-Gross is the executive director of René Cassin, the Jewish voice for human rights, and has over 25 years of experience as a human rights activist. She has a BA in international relations and an MA in international law. Mia is also a trustee of the Coalition for Genocide Response, co-Chair of the Alliance of Jewish Women and founder of Stop Uyghur Genocide UK.
After their presentations there will be time for questions and comments.
This event will commence at 6:30pm.
