Backing education for Gazans

| No Comments
This morning NPR featured the story of a Gazan who is unable to complete her education in Bethlehem because Israeli officials won't let her stay in the West Bank.

It is a difficult story. Berlanty Azzam was expelled from the West Bank and is unable to return to Bethlehem for the two months necessary to complete her BA.

APN is mobilizing support for a Congressional effort to support higher education opportunities for Gazan students in the West Bank.

The initiative is a sign-on letter circulated by Reps. Jim Moran (D-VA) and Bob Inglis (R-SC).

Education is vital to stability, security and a peaceful future for both Israelis and Palestinians.
