#CADFA student visit to Palestine!


We're very excited to tell you that finally we have the OK for the next phase of #TwinningInAction exchanges, this time including a STUDENT VISIT TO PALESTINE. This has yet to be timetabled (we'd like your advice) but will probably be early next year.

Students interested in working with #CADFA on #studentlinkswithPalestine please be in touch soon. We'll have volunteers from Palestine in London soon, we can work together to have a student exchange to London, we'll definitely have this exchange to Palestine

Lots to be done, be in touch!

London student meeting hears from Palestinian students

#CADFA #studentslink meeting on 24th September started with a talk by David from King's College about education in Palestine under occupation and why we want to link with Palestinian students. 

He also talked about CADFA student visits from Palestine and to Palestine and ways to be involved in building links with Al Quds University.

This was followed by an interesting talk by Ahmad Hammad from Yatta near Hebron - He was one of the students involved in CADFA's visit to the UK last year and he talked about why he thought this was useful. 

Then he and his brother Ghassan talked about the situation in Palestine for students.


 "I didn't know much about this before, it was shocking, " said one of the UK students who studies at UCL. 

The two students told their stories of harassment at checkpoints, being used as a human shield by Israeli soldiers, having their houses raided by soldiers at 4am and even (recently) of a friend  being shot and killed by Israeli soldiers.

Al Quds student arrested - Mohammed Omar

Student from Al Quds University arrested in Abu Dis on Monday 14th September - now in Al Muskobiya Interrogation Centre in Jerusalem.

Palestinian students - If anyone knows Mohammed here or can tell us of his progress, please let us know

British student links people note,

It's not clear how many students from the University are arrested at any time - sometimes they just don't make it to register for the year. But student imprisonment is one major issue
that is holding Palestinian students from the RIGHT TO EDUCATION

UK student links  - Please come if you can to a meeting (with food) on  Thursday 24th September above the CADFA office at 7pm
