To mark one year since the killing of Palestinian journalist Shireen Abu Akleh, this virtual event brought together close friends, family members, and scholars to honour her legacy and demand justice.
Dr. Nadia Naser-Najjab served as moderator, drawing from her personal friendship with Shireen to guide the discussion. Panelists included:

• Tony Abu Akleh (Shireen’s brother), who provided updates on the pursuit of justice, including a complaint to the International Criminal Court (ICC).

• Professor Ilan Pappé, who explored the systemic denial of justice to Palestinian victims.

• Aline Hanna, a lifelong friend of Shireen, who reflected on their 35-year friendship and the emotional toll of unaccountability.
