 Partnerships and Collaborations with international organizations on gathering and  measuring data for the SDGs

Palestine Technical University has  engaged participations in international collaboration on gathering and measuring data for the SDGs. Really this is a commendable initiative for a university.

Through active engagement in international collaborations focused on SDG-related research, our university can provide meaningful insights, advance sustainable development, and cultivate a worldwide community committed to realizing the objectives set forth by the United Nations.

The following are number of the considerations that have been considered in these collaborations: related research, capacity building, infrastructure, ethical consideration, secure funding, data sharing, and disseminations of research findings to academic communities, policymakers, and the general public

Here are number of these collaborations with international organizations:

1-    International TVETCQ Erasmus project with European partners:
