Please join the Palestine Museum for a conversation with United Nation’s Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the occupied Palestinian territories, Francesca Albanese . She will discuss her recently submitted biennial report on the human rights conditions in Palestine.

In the present report, Francesca Albanese finds that arbitrary and deliberate ill-treatment is inflicted upon the Palestinians not only through unlawful practices in detention but also as a carceral continuum comprised of techniques of large-scale confinement -physical, bureaucratic, digital- beyond detention. These violations may amount to international crimes prosecutable under the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court and universal jurisdiction.
