Publishing Date: 12.10.2023

HAWK strongly condemns the terror attack on Israel. Our thoughts are with all of the victims of this conflict, and their loved ones. We are shocked and appalled at the events in Gaza. HAWK stands in solidarity with Israel and joins with the Landeshochschulkonferenz (State University Conference, LHK) in endorsing the letter of solidarity issued by the German Rectors’ Conference (HRK) and its President, Professor Walther Rosenthal, to Israeli universities and higher education institutions and all of their members.

We stand in solidarity with all academic institutions and our thoughts are with those at our partner university, Zefat Academic College. Here at HAWK, we champion peace, democracy and humanity, and stand opposed to hate, violence and war.
