Work with the Insan Centre for Gender Studies

CADFA would like to thank our partner at the Al Quds University, the Insan Centre for Gender Studies, for a stimulating discussion during the women's exchange from which the visitors learned so much and also for the final event at the University theatre on Sunday 19th March.  Here, the participants from the exchange made presentations on what they had learned from the week of visits and discussions, and on what they intend to do with what they had learned.

It was a very interesting summing up of an intense week which had shocked and stimulated the UK visitors. They were impressed by the energy and enthusiasm of the people they had met and deeply sad about the situation they are living in. They have many ideas for further work with people they have met and with CADFA,  highlighting and explaining what is going on in Palestine to others and campaigning for human rights.

The session led to a number of other discussions about the 100th anniversary of the Balfour Declaration,  about the meaning of the songs sung by school children in the mornings and about next steps and new projects that the Insan Centre might undertake with CADFA.

Thank you again!
