Subject: Shrinking Space and the BDS movement (new report out now)
To: Frank Barat <russelltribunaluk at gmail.com>

A widening pattern of repression of social movements has taken shape around
the world. Everywhere, space for dissent is shrinking rapidly. Governments
and corporations alike are working to suppress and silence movements,
organisations and individuals who organise against repression. This
shrinking of public space threatens virtually all social movements. Around
the world, the legality, physical safety, and public access of dissident
movements and civil society more broadly are being threatened.

*This report* (
https://www.tni.org/en/publication/shrinking-space-and-the-bds-movement)
examines
the legal and political pressure exerted on the *Boycott, Divestment and
Sanctions (BDS) Movement*, a global campaign aimed at pressuring Israel to
end human rights violations, launched in 2005 by a group of Palestinian
activists.

*Share widely*, thanks!
Best
Frank
