Academics vote against Israeli boycott
Academics voted today to overturn their controversial boycott of Israeli universities, sources said.
Delegates were said to have voted overwhelmingly in favour of abandoning the boycott at a special meeting of the Association of University Teachers in London.
The AUT said it would now base its policy on providing “practical solidarity to Palestinian and Israeli trade unionists and academics” by agreeing a motion committing the union to having a full review of international policy, working alongside the lecturers’ union Natfhe and the Trades Union Congress.
