Evaluering
Curriculum Development and Guidance: Music and Graphic Design Palestinian Technical College Evaluation Report
The cooperation with PTC started in 2007 after the union's delegation was introduced to the College by the Director General from Ministry of Education and Higher Education. The reason for entering this cooperation was to exchange knowledge and experiences in the educational and cultural sector (music) and to support women's access to the labour market and women's education. The college is only for women students. A few years later the college asked the union to help establish a graphic design section in the college, which was accepted. In fall 2000 the second Intifada started and this affected the college both physically since it was more times hidden and destroyed by bombs and the communication and transportation situation for the students was in periods very risky. The evaluation touches this situation, and also the fact that the union in Norway merged from 2002 and started to develop its international solidarity profile, visits to the areas were rare and the troublesome political situation in Palestine combined with the kind of educational certificate a technical college provides turned out to influence the cooperation and the success of the study programs.
