About NYACT

Rendering of proposed Cornell-Technion Campus

We are an ad-hoc coalition of New York-based students, academics, activists, writers, and concerned individuals, who are working together to oppose the collaboration of Cornell University with The Technion – Israel Institute of Technology.

Our founding members include activists from the US Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel (USACBI) and Cornell University Students for Justice in Palestine, groups with which we continue to work closely.

We exist within a wider framework of support from other NY-based groups as well as groups across the US, Canada, Palestine, Israel, South Africa, and Europe.  Notably, along with Palestinian solidarity groups and grassroots activists, various major Jewish groups support this campaign.

If you would like to get involved in the campaign, please email us at NYACT@riseup.net
