MBI Al Jaber Foundation Projects:
Empowering Women in Gaza
Through this project, the Society Voice Foundation for Community and Civil Work (SVF) aims to build the leadership capacities and knowledge in political participation, legislation, democratic governance of 90 young women leaders, by training young women aged 18 to 25 in the principles and techniques of political and social participation, and women’s rights.
The project will also will empower the relationship between young women leaders and NGOs sector. The project will stimulate and assist 10 women’s centres in the middle governorate to empower women’s networks through which they will put into practice their newly acquired skills.
Young women leaders will also have the opportunity to stimulate the Palestinian democratic debate by the organisation of community campaigning activities to empower their political participation. The SVF in coordination with 10 women’s centres will work with university students’ councils with the objective of building a future democratic leadership based on full women participation in the political and social life by undertaking a series of special community activities for women such as training, summer camp, hall town meetings discussions and media outreach.
The project will reach the potential trainees in the middle areas of the Gaza Strip.
