Students from Ghent Students for Palestine and End Fossil Ghent occupied the university’s UFO building. They demanded transparent, time-bound plans on academic partnerships with Israeli institutions and stronger climate action. Their joint framing connected Palestinian rights, institutional accountability and climate justice. The university confirmed the occupation began on 6 May; it continued for weeks and involved negotiations, disputes over the university’s response and contested claims about events on campus.
