ABOUT

Through the successive components of PFDP, a community of practice has evolved among Palestinian academics, beginning with a focus on improving the quality of individual Palestinian faculty, expanding to facilitate improved teaching and learning practices in higher education institutions, and culminating in the establishment of Centers for Teaching Excellence at four universities—An Najah National University, Palestine Polytechnic University, Bethlehem University, and Palestine Technical University—where a new culture of teaching and learning has taken root.

Implemented in partnership with USAID and the Palestinian Ministry of Education and Higher Education (MoEHE), the Leadership and Teacher Development (LTD) Program was guided by the MoEHE’s priority to invest in Palestinian schools and improve classroom instruction. By 2018, it had introduced innovative approaches to school leadership and professional development that significantly improved learning among 150,000 students in grades five through 10 in 454 schools across the West Bank.
