For decades CBRL has worked collaboratively to increase understandings of the past and of the present in the Levant by conducting and supporting excellent and impactful academic research in the Humanities and Social Sciences across the region, and by disseminating the results of such research as widely as possible. We remain committed to our vision of promoting research that makes the fullest possible contribution to fostering knowledge and understanding of the Levant, for the common good. To achieve these aims we employ an exceptional team of talented individuals across the organisation. More information about the organisation can be found on our website (www.cbrl.ac.uk).
The London Central Employment Tribunal is yet to determine at a preliminary hearing whether it has territorial jurisdiction to hear an employment claim against CBRL brought by a former employee. The question of whether the Tribunal has territorial jurisdiction is solely a decision for the Tribunal, and not for CBRL.
We do not comment on employment matters or current legal proceedings.
