In Gaza, education is a daily act of quiet resistance
In Gaza, students are continuing their education despite the destruction of universities and schools, with many studying in tents or temporary spaces. This act of perseverance is seen as a quiet resistance against the erosion of their futures and right to education.
Students in Gaza are finding ways to continue their education despite the war. Alaa, a 23-year-old fine arts student, is rebuilding her graduation project using simple materials. Universities have been damaged or destroyed, and electricity and internet connections are often unreliable. Yet, many students keep studying, sometimes inside tents or among ruins. International estimates indicate that over 97% of schools in Gaza have been damaged or destroyed. Students are developing alternative ways to learn, such as discussing medical topics and clinical scenarios with each other. This determination to learn is a daily act of quiet resistance against the destruction of their educational system.
