Student Groups Urge Indiana University to Divest Over Human Rights Abuses

Original: Student groups ask IU to divest from countries with alleged human rights abuses, call back to anti-apartheid efforts

Student groups at Indiana University are calling on the university to divest from countries accused of human rights abuses, explicitly invoking the anti-apartheid divestment campaigns as precedent. The move adds IU to a wider wave of campus divestment activism across the United States, where students are pressuring university administrations to reconsider their investments on human rights grounds.

Why now: Campus divestment activism over human rights concerns is drawing renewed national attention at US universities.
