In an impressive demonstration of academic excellence and effective networking, Palestine has achieved outstanding success in the Erasmus+ 2023 capacity-building projects’ call for applications.
This achievement is the result of the constructive collaborative spirit of Palestinian universities and private sector organizations supported by the Office of the European Union Representative.
The Ministry of Higher Education, the Erasmus+ National Office in Palestine, the Office of the European Union Representative, representatives of EU Member States, and the implementing partners celebrated today the launch of the awarded projects.
In this year’s round, Palestine won four projects in the field of Capacity Building in Higher Education and came at the top of its region with the highest number of awarded projects among participating countries. Palestine submitted high-quality proposals and was among the top-ranking countries, second only to Ukraine and Jordan in terms of the number of applications.
These projects align closely with both European Union objectives and Palestine’s own priorities, focusing on capacity building in critical areas such as scientific research, energy, agriculture, green technologies, and social and psychological support services. Palestinian universities and private sector entities together with European, African, Lebanese, and Emirati partners will collectively implement these projects over a span of three years.
