The DAAD in the Palestinian Territories

The Palestinian Territories have been an important partner for the DAAD in the region for decades with students being awarded scholarships as early as the 1950s. The first DAAD funded professorship was established 1993 and today three visiting professors as well as one language assistant from Germany are sponsored by the DAAD to work in the Palestinian Territories.

Focusing on the promotion of academics and scientists, the DAAD has played an important role in supporting further development of Higher Education structures in the Palestinian Territories. More than 800 scholars from the Palestinian Territories have already received grants in order to study and research in Germany – a great number of them are shaping future generations today holding lead positions in Higher Education, Politics and the Economy.

By fostering cooperation between German and Palestinian Higher Education institutions, the DAAD further supports the establishment of international structures at universities.
