Abstract

This research explores how Palestinian universities have shown resilience and implemented strategies to overcome challenges caused by the occupation. It delves into the leadership-led reforms in engineering, law, and medicine within these institutions through in-depth interviews with program deans. The study highlights how faculty members adjust curricula, teaching techniques, and program frameworks to tackle obstacles and address changing needs. Key strategies identified for resilience include flexibility, investment in staff development, fostering international partnerships, and effective management practices. Progress in achieving gender equality and the successful global careers of graduates are noted as signs of effective management. By embracing pedagogy and community involvement, these universities demonstrate the power of higher education in conflict zones. They navigate adversity by encouraging critical thinking and social accountability, showcasing the potential for education to drive change during times of conflict. The insights gained from this research offer lessons for institutions confronting similar sociopolitical challenges while emphasizing the significance of resilience, adaptability, and effective management during crises.
