The Interview: How to Occupy a University? The pro-Palestine Student Occupation of Ljubljana University

By Justas Korsakovas / 14 birželio, 2025

From the 8th of May, 2024 a few dozen students occupied part of the Faculty of Social Sciences (FSS) at the University of Ljubljana, demanding the institution to recognise Israel’s actions in Palestine as a genocide. After a six day occupation the Faculty accepted their demands and released a statement condemning the genocide in Palestine.

I sat down with Anja and Gaj, the activists who participated in the occupation of the FSS and who continue to organize for Palestine today. We discussed how the occupation was organized, what challenges the students faced, and what a potential organizer could learn from their experience.

Kol visas dėmesys nukreiptas į Gazą, Vakarų Krante palestiniečiai išgyvena vienus kruviniausių metų. Tačiau nors ir brutalesni nei įprasta, šie metai nėra labai išskirtiniai – okupacija tęsiasi jau daugiau kaip penkis dešimtmečius ir kasdienybė joje tik sunkėja. Apie ją pasikalbėjome su Majd Hajjaj, socialine ir kultūrine aktyviste iš Ramalos, okupuoto Vakarų Kranto.

For Qassem Ali, the conflict began in his childhood and continues to this day. A couple of weeks ago, Qassem fled Gaza, leaving behind his mother and sister, a house that has been destroyed for the third time, and the bodies of his relatives, who have been lying in the rubble for a month and a half now.
