End NTNU's cooperation with Israel

For years, NTNU has collaborated with Israeli universities and companies that are complicit in the occupation of Palestine. Currently, this includes an exchange agreement with the Bezalel Academy of Arts and numerous research projects at different Israeli institutions, particularly in technology development.

NTNU also has a collaboration agreement with Kongsberg Gruppen, which produces parts for the Israeli F-35 planes currently dropping bombs on Gaza.

As students and faculty at NTNU, we demand that NTNU:

1. Freeze collaboration with Kongsberg Gruppen as long as they continue selling weapons and weapon parts to Israel, either directly or indirectly via third party countries.

2. Terminate all exchange agreements and programs with Israeli universities and other academic institutions.

3. Refrain from entering into new research projects, programs, or agreements with Israeli institutions, as well as any companies complicit in the occupation of Palestine, via the Horizon Europe framework agreement.
