Building Conflict-Resilient Law Schools: Lessons from University of Haifa's Response to October 7th

Thursday, October 23  |  Jaqua 101 |  5:00 - 6:30 p.m.
How can universities maintain open, respectful dialogue during times of conflict? Following the events of October 7, 2023, the University of Haifa’s Law Faculty created “Guidelines for Free and Safe Discourse”—a model now shared at Harvard, NYU, and Cincinnati.

Join us for an engaging discussion on how these principles foster inclusion, safety, and understanding in diverse academic communities, and how they connect to UO’s own Shared Principles for Educational Events.

Additional Resources

Responsible Internationalization
In recent years, there have been concerns raised by the federal government over inappropriate foreign state influence on research conducted at universities in the United States. Given those concerns and the ever-changing landscape of federal regulations, we encourage all faculty and staff to look at the guidelines and requirements for foreign engagement in international research relationships and activities. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact Dennis Galvan, dean and vice provost of the Division of Global Engagement, at dgalvan@uoregon.edu.
