The aftermath of the 7 October Hamas attack on Israel has seen a sharp increase in boycott initiatives against Israeli academic institutions and scholars. In response, the Samuel Neaman Institute for National Policy Studies has launched the Scholar Shield Project, which aims to collect data on the academic boycott and divestment phenomenon, analyze it, and provide recommendations on how to counter it (Neaman Institute 2024).
