Dear Colleagues
On behalf of a group of international housing, planning, and urban studies scholars, I would like to draw your attention to a new statement explicitly condemning the domicide in Gaza. The statement stresses the scale of the destruction of homes and related vital social infrastructure. In the context of the continued violence and the need for vital reconstruction and support, it observes the scale of destruction of homes and expresses personal commitments to boycott Israeli institutions (not individual researchers) in order to continue pressure for a dramatic improvement of conditions. The statement can be found here: https://forms.gle/6ZmbW6NR4gP1k5Vv8
With best wishes to all
