The Conflict Studies Research Center organized a field tour for the students of the International Postgraduate Program to the villages north of Ramallah.
During the tour, the students of the American University of The New School, who participated in the program, learned about the nature of the administrative division of the different parts of the West Bank. The tour allowed the students to move around in several areas with the help of community organizations due to the nature of these areas and the restrictions imposed on them.
The students listened to the challenges faced by the residents of Silwad Camp, represented by their lack of access to UNRWA services, similar to the other camps. They also learned about the suffering of the surrounding villages as a result of the occupation, including water scarcity and poor services, in addition to discussing gender issues.
