Workshop summary: This workshop is part of the expanded activities of the
World Education Forum in Palestine, where education activists are currently
meeting in Haifa, Beirut, Gaza and Ramallah to talk about how to empower
Palestinian educators and students for liberation. This workshop will bring
together Palestinian educators and education activists in the US to discuss
liberatory strategies in each of our educational spheres, and how we can
build possibilities for expanding collective understandings of theories and
practices of self-determination within the Palestinian community in the US.
all best,
