University College London in Gower Street
THE definition of anti-semitism by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) is not fit for purpose, University College London’s (UCL) academic board found today following a detailed study.
The board is urging the council of the college to set aside the IHRA definition of anti-semitism, which the UCL adopted in 2019, and replace it with a more appropriate alternative.
In the groundbreaking report, academics and lawyers found that the IHRA definition “is not fit for purpose within a university setting and has no legal basis for enforcement.”
