Скачать или смотреть Zack Polanski comments on students protesting UoM ties to Tel Aviv University

Since October 2023, there has been an influx of student protests against University of Manchester collaborations with Tel Aviv University. At The World Transformed 2025, we interviewed @greenpartyzack and asked him to respond to student calls to end this partnership.

In an official response, a University of Manchester spokesperson said:

"The relationship with Tel Aviv University (TAU) covers academic research collaborations. Academic collaboration is based on academic interest, with provision in all three of our faculties (Humanities, Science and Engineering
and Biology, Medicine and Health).

“Similar to other international collaborations with universities, we operate a seed fund competition using a 'call document' to guide our joint activities which our academics can apply to. To date, we have conducted three research seed fund calls with TAU, funding 18 projects in areas such as health, astrophysics, and the Arabic language.

“As with all such partnerships, participation is entirely voluntary for our academics, reflecting our commitment to academic freedom. Researchers are free to pursue their interests within the bounds of the law.”
