Five Higher Education Council Members Resign Over Gender Segregation Law in Academia
Five members of Israel's Council for Higher Education resigned in protest against a new law permitting academic institutions to establish separate study tracks for men and women, including in advanced degree programs. The law, which enshrines gender segregation in higher education, has raised concerns about the potential exclusion of women from academic spaces. One of the resigning members, Liran Kojahinof, stated that the move "could lead to the exclusion of women from the academic environment." The resignations highlight significant opposition within the academic leadership to the legislation, which has sparked public demonstrations against gender segregation in academia.
