Isnad: Emergency Scholarships for Students in Gaza
Isnad is an emergency scholarship programme launched by Taawon in partnership with Gaza's non-for-profit universities to support students and sustain higher education in Gaza.
Isnad is an emergency scholarship programme
The programme responds to the financial devastation facing students and universities. Many students are unable to pay tuition fees, while Gaza's public universities rely on tuition income to pay faculty and staff and maintain core operations.
By supporting student scholarships, Isnad helps students continue their education while also sustaining the universities that teach them.
