Statement of solidarity to students affected by conflict in Israel and Gaza

With the ongoing conflict in Israel and Gaza that has resulted in the loss of many innocent Palestinian and Israeli lives, we want to express our solidarity with students who have been affected by the violence and strongly condemn any acts of discrimination, including Antisemitism and Islamophobia.

We kindly request everyone to be respectful and caring towards one another during this challenging time. As the UWSA, our utmost priority is to provide support and assistance to all students.

Here is a list of mental health and support resources in Winnipeg and throughout Canada that you may find helpful: theuwsa.ca/mental-health-resources

In solidarity,
The UWSA
