largest educational framework in the world, and the most influential in the
international agenda with regard to education, specifically the issue of refugees,
as one of the most important strategic goals of the campaign is to work to
achieve all rights with regard to educating refugees and assisting them in
every way. A place to continue their education, especially since the
Palestinian refugees wherever they are are part of the refugees in the world,
and therefore the campaign targets them.
Al-Sabah
explained that the campaign does not target refugees in terms of providing
material needs here and there, but rather through political action on the
refugee issue in general, especially since most Palestinian camps are now
suffering from a financial crisis, especially with the reduction of education
budgets by the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian Refugees
(UNRWA). This is the responsibility of the Arab Campaign for Education, and we,
along with this campaign and the Higher Coordinating Committee for “Education
Cannot Wait,” which has its programs in the Palestinian territories and refugee
camps in more than one Arab region, are working to provide the necessary
funding for the camps.
Al-Sabah referred to the lack of special
budgets for education inside the camps that suffer from a deteriorating
economic situation, and to a severe poverty and destitution situation
escalating in the Palestinian camps, explaining that many of these camps suffer
from political and security measures, stressing the need to pay attention to
the global campaign for education for all Palestinian communities. And mobile,
stressing that this requires the Palestinian educational coalition and the
Syrian, Lebanese and Jordanian coalitions to raise the issue of the needs of
refugees in these areas.
Al-Sabah
added: The Global Campaign for Education is able to play a political role at
the international level to meet the needs of the displaced Palestinians and
non-Palestinians, whether in northern Syria or any other region, and that
Palestinian civil society institutions, whether inside or outside the occupied
homeland Palestine, need to network collectively to influence In international
policies related to the material aspect or the political aspect.
Al-Sabah
confirms that this responsibility is also placed on other frameworks concerned
with education, such as "UNESCO" and others, which requires the
Palestinians to assemble themselves in clear frameworks capable of influencing
all these spaces, and part of the spaces that we influence is the Global
Campaign for Education in Palestine, which supports The Palestinian Coalition
and every education issue in Palestine, whether through their direct presence
or through influence on funding platforms in the world.
It is
noteworthy that the "Global Campaign for Education for All" is one of
the most important educational social movements in the world, and it is an
educational framework that has been able to influence the global educational
agenda, and it has and still has a prominent role in formulating the fourth
goal of education within the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals.
It is

colleagues began to establish Al-Ghurbal magazine (a literary magazine).

learning loss among students, and for this reason the curricula were developed
