LCID is pleased to begin its 2014 events programme with a discussion on issues of human rights in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

In Autumn last year LCID member Melanie Ward served as a Human Rights Observer in the West Bank. For 3 months she lived and worked in Hebron, one of the most tense areas in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. In this event she will share and discuss experiences of life under military occupation, the humanitarian impact on the local population and the work of Israeli human rights groups.
