Podcast appearances and mentions of ibrahim halawa

Ibrahim Halawa, a 25-year-old Irishman, spent more than four years of his life in prison in Egypt after he was arrested while on a family holiday in 2013. Then aged 17, Ibrahim was detained by the Egyptian security forces after he and three of his sisters were caught up in a siege at a mosque in Cairo in August 2013.

Clare's Fianna Fáil TD is calling on the government to take oversight into the seizure of a toddler from a Cratloe mother by armed forces. Meelick Fianna Fáil TD Cathal Crowe wants the government to take the same diplomatic action it did in the Ibrahim Halawa case in helping Sarah Jane.

Ibrahim Halawa, a now 25-year-old Irishman, spent more than four years of his life in prison in Egypt after he was arrested while on a family holiday in 2013. Then aged 17, Ibrahim was detained by the Egyptian security forces after he and three of his sisters were caught up in a siege at a mosque in Cairo in August 2013. The women were allowed to return home to Ireland within three months, but their teenage brother was kept in Wadi el-Natrun prison outside Cairo. The teenager was accused, along with nearly 500 others, of inciting violence, riot, and sabotage and faced a mass trial under threat of the death penalty. 1497 days/4 years later, Ibrahim Halawa was acquitted of all charges. He was released from Wadi el-Natrun on 20 October 2017, returning home to Dublin and his family. In March 2017, as a Medical Doctor, I was asked by the Irish Government to visit Ibrahim in the bleak, stark Wadi el-Natrun prison to establish his level of health and wellbeing. Ibrahim, then 21 was physically frail and fragile. Today, I'm delighted to be joined by Ibrahim Halawa, now an undergraduate law student at University College Dublin, Sutherland School of Law. We talk about his experiences in Wadi el-Natrun and how, while you may not be able to change your circumstances, you can change how you respond to them. We explore Ibrahim's inner resolve at such a young age, how his resilience grew, and how he derived strength from Victor Frankl's Man's search for Meaning and Nelson Mandela's Long Walk to Freedom during his incarceration. We talk about the Power of Forgiveness and letting go for a better future alongside the importance of never forgetting. “If you're ever put into such a condition, believe in something. Whatever it is, you have to believe in something, because it will pull you through.– Ibrahim Halawa This week on In the Doctor's Chair Ibrahim's experience in Wadi el-Natrun The cruciality of belief and the need for meaning The power of resilience The power of forgiveness The importance of memory In the Doctor's Chair Thanks for listening to In the Doctor's Chair, the show where you'll hear conversations that share life lessons, health habits, and leadership practices that focus on positive psychology, lifestyle medicine, and ways for you to live with more vitality.

It was great to be rejoined in the tortoise shack by aspiring lawyer and human rights activist, Ibrahim Halawa. We just wish it was under different circumstances. Ibrahim tells us about Ayman Moussa, who was arrested in Oct 2013 and was sentenced to 15 years in prison. Ibrahim describes the young bright and academically and athletically accomplished man he met in prison and tells us about some of the ordeals he endured. Ayman was imprisoned at 19 and is now 27. But we can help. Check out Ibrahim's twitter @IbrahimHalawa13 and you can sign the petition calling for a Presidential Pardon HERE.

Ibrahim Halawa joined Kieran on the Thursday Interview this week to discuss his upbringing in Dublin, his family's Egyptian heritage, his feelings a few years on from his imprisonment in Egypt, and his budding career in law.

Ibrahim Halawa is a 25-year-old law student from Tallaght in Dublin, Ireland. Between the ages of 17 and 21 he was wrongfully imprisoned in an Egyptian prison after being arrested during a visit to Cairo in 2013. The trip coincided with pro-democracy protests which had swept the country and led to hundreds of civilians being killed by the forces of the military-led government of General el-Sisi. I was involved in campaigning to free Ibrahim from prison and it was great to finally get the chance to talk with him about his experiences, his insights, and his incredible story. I hope you enjoy this conversation with Ibrahim Halawa.

This was a live recording that took place at University College Dublin as part of the UCD Volunteers Overseas annual forum. The theme of the event was The Age of Activism – making space for intergenerational learning and it was sponsored by Concern Worldwide, Comhlamh and UCD international. This wide-ranging conversation featured 3 inspirational voices for change. CAOIMHE BUTTERLY Caoimhe Butterly is, without doubt, one of the most impressive activists I have ever met. She has lived in solidarity with communities in Mexico, Guatemala, Haiti, Palestine, Iraq and Lebanon for over 15 years. She has spent the past five years involved in refugee, undocumented and asylum-seeker support networks in Greece, Lebanon, the Balkans, Calais and Ireland. Now living in Dublin, she is also studying and working in the area of Systemic Psychotherapy, with a focus on collectively experienced trauma. She also makes short documentary films, one of which, ‘The Border’ won the 2016 ICCL Human Rights Film Awards. CODIE PRESTON Codie Preston is from Jobstown in Tallaght and is a past UCDVO volunteer. He studied science in UCD and travelled to Haiti and India with UCDVO. As a young person, he attended Citywise Education, an organisation that promotes education in a fun and engaging way. He continued to stay involved as a volunteer and now sits on the Board of the charity. He has worked as a secondary school teacher for the last 10 years and was involved in the campaign to release Ibrahim Halawa, a former student of his, from prison in Egypt. He is also a recipient of a Youth Award, in the Tallaght Person of the Year awards and has been involved in various other campaigns and believes in young people, education and social justice DR URSULA BARRY Ursula Barry is Associate Professor in social economics and gender studies in the School of Social Policy, Social Work and Social Justice in UCD. Ursula has wide-ranging experience as a researcher and policy analyst in the area of gender equality in Ireland, the EU and globally. She has been a committed activist and writer on reproductive justice, gender equality, LGBT issues and human rights in Ireland since the early 1970s and has written extensively on the economic and social situation of women in Ireland. The conversation started with me asking the panel to reflect on the previous speaker at the conference, who was Michael Doorley, who is the Head of Active citizenship at Concern Worldwide. Michael’s talk was a hope-filled speech about his many decades of work for social justice and he’s someone I hope to interview in a future episode. The conversation really gets going after that where each of the guests reflects on their early influences, their journey in creating change, and their hopes for the future.

In the summer of 2013 a 17-year-old Ibrahim Halawa travelled to Egypt with his 3 sisters, Omaima, Somaia and Fatima Halawa, to visit their extended family. A tradition they had followed almost every summer since they were born. Ibrahim had just completed his leaving cert and was applying to college in Dublin to study engineering.

It's Wednesday, and the lads are joined, for perhaps the most Midlands episode so far, by the incredibly talent, hilarious, and award winning comedian Alison Spittle (@AlisonSpittle) to talk about her new RTÉ show Nowhere Fast, the Dublin comedy scene, and selfies with Ibrahim Halawa! They also chat about the various school tours they went one, the recent Irish Tatler Awards, and the Pirate CD empire that Davey once ran. Check out Nowhere Fast this Monday, the 13th November at 10pm on RTÉ 2!

After 4yrs in an Egyptian prison, Ibrahim Halawa, a 22yr old Irish student, was acquitted of all charges against him in Sept 2017. We revisit the documentary we made on Ibrahim’s story in June 2016 with Peter Greste, the acclaimed journalist, who shared a cell with Ibrahim and who had never previously spoken out about this controversial case.

Claire was joined in studio by Michael D'Arcy, Fine Gael TD for Wexford, Darragh O'Brien, Fianna Fáil TD for Dublin Fingal, Pearse Doherty, Sinn Fein TD for Donegal, Fionnán Sheahan, Editor of The Irish Independent and Christina Finn, Political Correspondent with thejournal.ie, and on the line by Fatima Halawa, sister of Ibrahim Halawa.

The delay in dealing with the case of Ibrahim Halawa has left Irish observers with a negative view of Egypt's human rights record. It is a view apparently shared by the U.S. State Department, which last week cut $300 million in military and economic aid to the country and its president Abdel el-Sisi, a leader once praised by Donald Trump, for failing to make progress on human rights . But there is more to the move than meets the eye. We talk to New York Times Cairo bureau chief Declan Walsh. Later in the podcast we talk to Texas resident John Holden about the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey, and what is expected when President Trump visits the stricken region later today.
