Dr John Reynolds was at the University of Antwerp in March 2025 to lead a set of joint LLM hybrid lectures on Third World Approaches to International Law & the Question of Palestine. Students from the University of Antwerp (LLM in Sustainable Development and Global Justice) participated in person, while students from Maynooth School of Law & Criminology (LLM in International Justice) and Birzeit University (Institute of Law and Muwatin Institute for Human Rights) participated online.
The lectures and materials discussed the core ideas and contributions of Third World Approaches to International Law (TWAIL) and situated Palestine in the context of TWAIL scholarship and anti-colonial practice in international law and the UN system.
Dr John Reynolds is Chair of the LLM International Justice programme in the School of Law & Criminology. Details of the LLM programme are available here and applications for the 2025/26 year are currently open.
