About Us

Who are we?

Partners in Palestine (PiP) is an organization dedicated to supporting Palestinian students and young professionals navigate academia and the industry. Our team is composed of a group of undergraduate and graduate Palestinian-Canadian students and working professionals who are dedicated towards advancing the education and career outcomes of students and young professionals in Palestine.

Our organization was founded on the basis that students and young professionals in Palestine lack vital access to external partners and mentors who have had success in comparable professional and academic fields. PiP is dedicated to closing this gap, by fostering partnerships between Palestinians and professionals and academics around the world.

Our Mission

To establish meaningful and supportive partnerships for students and young professionals in Palestine, from and within the global academic and Industry networks.

Vision

To establish the future of Palestine and its economic and social recovery through global expertise and support.
