Education and Palestine

Norwich Friends Meeting House.
59 Pottergate, Norwich, Norfolk
Imagine learning about English identity and cultural history without studying the works of Shakespeare and you have a picture of what education in Palestine is for those designated “Israeli Arabs” forbidden to study the works of their most significant cultural figures. This picture however still lacks the effects of military dictatorship on the most vulnerable and susceptible members of society its children. Education like all other areas of life for Palestinians is shaped and represented by the will of Israel the occupying power and the NUT is proud to present findings from its most recent delegation to Palestine to allow Palestinian voices to be heard.
ALL WELCOME

Dear Friends,
This is a notification of our next UNA LunchBox talk on Friday 16th September 2016. It is also our AGM which takes place between 12.30 and 1pm. The speaker at 1pm this month is Professor Catherine Rowett from the School of Philosophy at UEA. She will talk about ” What’s the relevance of Christian ethical teaching when it comes to international crises? And why some questions have no answers.”
This is a stunning subject and should make a very interesting discussion. Do please try to come.
The venue is the usual place: the Friends Meeting House, Upper Goat Lane, Norwich NR2 1EW. The talk commences at 1pm. See you there.
best wishes,
Marguerite
Vice Chair UNA (Norwich & District)
