The Commencement of the Project "Enabling Disadvantaged Families Economically in Soureef, Nuba and Kharas Villages."

The Palestinian Center for Communication and Development Strategies in Hebron announces the commencement of the Project "Enabling Disadvantaged Families Economically in Soureef, Nuba and Kharas Villages." This project focuses on establishing small feminist projects of bee-keeping in the mentioned areas in collaboration with Sabaya Kharas Association, Soureef Feminist Club and Nuba Feminist Club. This project targets 120 women from the three villages, provided that 10% of the beneficiary women are disabled.

At the preparatory meeting held today in the hall of the Palestinian center and attended by the representatives of the partner institutions, Mr. Jameel Alderbashi pointed out that the project targets the single-income families, the families affected by the Apartheid Wall and the ones that are financially able to contribute in the project. Also, he noted that the single project costs 1000 USD and each beneficiary family contributes 20 % of the project costs.  

It is worth mentioning that the project aims to strengthen the single-income families economically through the carrying out of small feminist projects and improve the Palestinian woman's role in the sustainable development. Furthermore, the participants will receive intensive trainings in managing bee-keeping projects.
