DESCRIPTION:The genocide in Gaza is an assault on every facet of life and society. 
 Entire sectors have been decimated, universities razed, and livelihoods 
 eradicated. Supporting the people of Gaza in this crisis is a multi-pronged 
 effort ranging from immediate humanitarian needs to providing avenues to 
 resume education and employment. \n\nThose who have made the devastating 
 decision to leave Gaza are faced with the monumental challenge of 
 rebuilding their lives after months of traumatic dispossession. Rising 
 settler violence in the West Bank and the ripple effect on Palestinian 
 movement and employment has also exacerbated economic conditions. An 
 estimated 468,000 jobs in Gaza and the West Bank have been lost since 
 October 2023.\n\nDigital work has long been a viable means for Palestinians 
 in the West Bank and Gaza to circumvent the limitations imposed by the 
 Israeli occupation and participate in the global economy and earn 
 meaningful incomes. That avenue still holds promise for Palestinians in 
 this time of immense need. \n\nWe are hosting a webinar to take a deeper 
 dive into the initiatives underway that are creating immediate job 
 opportunities for Palestinians. Joining us for this important conversation 
 are two Palestinian job creators who are delivering innovative initiatives 
 that invest in Palestinian talent while creating dignified employment 
 opportunities: Abeer Abu Ghaith, founder of MENA Alliances, Jafar Shunnar, 
 co-founder of TAP, and Fadi Issawi, co-founder of HopeHub. This 
 conversation will be moderated by Lama Amr, co-director of BuildPalest\n
