Goldsmiths Publishes Its Commitments
The university addressed scholarship and policy demands after a building occupation.
After Goldsmiths for Palestine occupied the Professor Stuart Hall building in spring 2024, Goldsmiths published commitments addressing the group’s demands. They covered support for Palestinian education and scholarship and included a role for student groups in a policy review.
The May update recorded the renaming of Humanitarian Scholarships as Palestinian Scholarships. Goldsmiths also published an eligibility and application page for the scholarship. The commitments page and the program listing document different stages of the university’s response.

Establishing how many students received funding would require award or enrollment records. That distinction keeps the announcement, the application process and eventual outcomes visible as separate steps.

The London figure measures a police force’s work across multiple public events. The force includes overtime, hired vehicles and mutual aid in additional expenditure. Its wider figure also values on-duty resources diverted from regular work. These figures describe a city-wide policing burden and do not price individual university decisions.
