WEBINAR: The Biosphere of Genocide
with Dr Ghassan Abu Sittah – Chair of Conflict Medicine

Monday 8th September at 3 pm UK time

We are honoured to welcome Dr Ghassan Abu-Sittah, British-Palestinian Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon, for our next webinar.

Dr Abu-Sittah trained in Glasgow and London, with fellowships at Great Ormond Street and the Royal London Hospital. In 2024, he was elected Lord Rector of the University of Glasgow and awarded an honorary doctorate by the American University of Beirut Medical Center, where he is now Professor of Conflict Medicine.

In October 2023, he spent 43 harrowing days in Gaza, operating at Shifa and Al-Ahli Baptist Hospitals. His frontline testimony and medical records have since contributed to South Africa’s genocide case at the ICJ and to proceedings at the International Criminal Court.

Don’t miss this vital conversation on medicine, war, and justice.

Warm wishes,
The Britain Palestine Project Team
