"How does educational leadership of Gaza’s universities at this time of war and crises differ from typical leadership elsewhere? What are the implications for academic practice? Why is this work important, and how can we support it?
Gaza’s universities have faced huge challenges in continuing to offer some form of higher education to nearly 100,000 students since the start of Israel’s ongoing war on the Gaza Strip. Their struggles and how we look to rebuild in the future are of relevance to educational leadership in other conflict-affected areas." Commentary by Dr Mona Jebril, research associate at the University of Cambridge’s Centre for Business Research and a Bye-Fellow in education and academic development at Queens’ College, University of Cambridge.
