Birzeit University: Work Camps for International Students

Each year, Birzeit University organizes two fortnight-long work camps which give international students the opportunity to work alongside Palestinian students on community-orientated projects. Palestine & Arabic Studies students often join the camps, which take students all over the West Bank and Gaza Strip, working on projects for schools, municipalities, special needs centers and more. To learn more about dates and details, contact the programme directly.
