Palestinian Continuing Education under Occupation:Images of Distress and Possibilities for Hope
Davidson, Howard
Canadian Journal of University Continuing Education, v36 n2 Fall 2010
This study examines how aspects of a militarily enforced occupation have influenced continuing education at Palestinian universities. It focuses on three influences: the impact of the politics of occupation on the history of continuing education; the effect of travel restriction, violence, and a damaged economy on participation; and the influence of a dependence on foreign donations on program development and delivery.
