MEET – Mideast education through technology
Posted on June 24th, 2009 by Craig Newmark
Hey, the folks at MEET do a great job educating young Palestinians and Israelis in computer tech.
MEET is an innovative educational initiative aimed at creating a common professional language between Israeli and Palestinian young leaders. Working together with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), MEET enables its participants to acquire advanced technological and leadership tools while empowering them to create positive social change within their own communities.The MEET students (from Ramllah, Betlehem, East and West Jerusalem, and Bet Shemesh) have just completed a successful Year-Long program, and are excited to move to the summer program!
