The inaugural Al-Hadenah: Intellectual Sanctuary Collective conference,
December 11-12, 2024, will bring together Palestinian scholars and
Palestine Studies scholars in order to promote intellectual exchanges that
have been severely hindered by settler-colonial displacement, institutional
siloing, intellectual and political repression, and academic precarity.

*About the conference:*

The conference will be held in collaboration with an emerging international
Palestinian formation, Al-hadenah, the Intellectual Sanctuary Collective
(ISC), a resistant intellectual movement that proposes to offer an
alternative to repressive institutionalized academic regimes supported by
hegemonic power holders. Inspired by the failure of the global community to
stop the ongoing genocide in Gaza, ISC hopes to become a powerful academic
‘grassroots’ movement and intellectual network of Palestinian and Palestine
Studies scholars against the governance of the mind and the control over
Palestinian knowledge production. ISC is intended to furnish a counterspace
for the nurturing of Palestinian scholars and “Palestinian intellectual
sovereignty” , an Indigenous and decolonial intellectual and political
“home space” that enlivens alternative modes of knowledge production
challenging the global political economy of racial injustice against
Palestine and the Palestinians. ISC will offer an intellectual sanctuary
for Palestinian and non-Palestinian faculty members from various campuses,
countries, and disciplines and seek to bring those forcibly scattered or
exilic scholars into easier and more regular contact with one another.

The conference will address two primary concerns: First, the destruction of
Palestinian intellectual and cultural institutions, and the censorship and
silencing (if not outright targeted killing) of Palestinian scholars, which
provides the basis for the urgent need to provide a safe sanctuary; and
second, nurturing Palestinian knowledge production, networks of care and
intellectual production in the face of hegemonic power structures, and
stimulating dialogue across the international scholarly community and
throughout global civil society.

Conference sponsored by the Center for Ideas and Society, Al Hadenah
Intellectual Sanctuary Collective, and the California Center for Native
Nations. Co-sponsored by the Departments of Black Study, Comparative
Literature, Dance, English, Gender and Sexuality Studies and Media and
Cultural Studies.
