About Local Partners

There is no prime organizational partner purposely so as to “hold the door open” wide for all potentially positive organizational linkages to be created.

The Education Development Center (EDC), through Hisham Kullab, has contacted local advisers for community support to the Hidaya Project. They include staff at:

• El Aqsa University
• Society Voice Foundation
• Red Crescent
• Khan Yunis Services Club
• Red Crescent Society
• Ministry of Higher Education
• Gaza Program for Mental Health
