SUMMARY:Talk: When The World Looked Away - Palestine
DESCRIPTION:Lboro UCU will host a talk\, open to all staff and students\, by Ali Bilgic – Professor of International Relations and Middle East Politics at Loughborough University. The talk will take place on Tuesday 3rd March at 12-1pm on the Loughborough campus in JB021 in the Sir John Beckwith Centre for Sport (map) and online. Please contact ucu@lboro.ac.uk to register your interest in attending in person or online. \nThis talk offers a concise examination of the historical\, political\, and legal dynamics shaping the conflict in Palestine\, with particular focus on Gaza. Beginning with the ideological origins of Zionism and the waves of settler migration under British rule\, it traces how settler‑colonial practices\, racialisation\, and land dispossession laid the foundations for ongoing structural violence Palestinians have to endure everyday. The talk also unpacks Israel’s legal framework highlighting systemic inequalities entrenched in state policy. Contemporary developments such as ICC arrest warrant applications\, UN findings about the genocide in Gaza\, and escalating settler violence in the West Bank illuminate the severity of present‑day conditions. The presentation also foregrounds Gaza’s environmental devastation\, described as ecocide\, and the humanitarian catastrophe persisting even after the ceasefire. Concluding with avenues for solidarity and cultural engagement\, it challenges audiences to recognise moral responsibilities and to amplify Palestinian voices wherever they can.

SUMMARY:Menopause Café
DESCRIPTION:Loughborough University have organised a Menopause Café. \nThe Menopause Café aims to break down any stigma around menopause and increase awareness of the impact of menopause on those experiencing it. The Café will be held in the Rutland Building – Collaboration Space (0.02) on Tuesday 14th October 2025 between 12pm and 2pm. \nA Menopause Cafe is a discussion group\, open to all ages and genders.  It is open to all University colleagues who want to talk about menopause\, to share their stories\, experiences and questions – all made that little bit easier with tea\, coffee and biscuits. \nAs October is Menopause month\, this café will include a session led by Sarah Van Zoelen from Occupational Health to provide information and guidance on navigating menopause. \nMany people feel that they should just ‘get on with’ the menopause\, with some never talking to their friends\, family or their manager about it.  People can come along to share their experiences or just listen\, hopefully leaving with a clearer sense of the impact of menopause on those who are experiencing it. \nThe intention is for a café to be held each term\, and the next one will be held in February.  Further details will follow closer to the time.
