ACT AppealPalestinian Territories - MEPL31, REVISION 1Assistance to Civilian Victims of ConflictGeneva,
11 November, 2003
Results of recent surveys all agree that the astronomic rates of
unemployment and disruption of the educational process remain the
most disturbing consequences of the civil emergency and closures in
the Occupied Palestinian Territories. Since the second Intifada (uprising)
in September 2000, the political situation has been declining steadily,
affecting directly the socio-economic conditions. Schools are impacted
directly as a result of the prevailing conditions and families of
students who were punctual in paying tuition fees are no longer able
to pay a large proportion or any of the required fees. ACT member Lutheran World Federation/World Service (LWS/WS)
has a long and impressive history of working in the field of vocational
training in Palestine, aimed particularly at refugees and disadvantaged
Palestinians. The LWF-VTC has trained thousands of Palestinians by
providing them with employable skills, enabling them to participate
in the workforce and to support their families. This proposal seeks emergency funding to increase the number of trainees
and reach out to the young students affected by the closures through
developing Satellite Vocational Training in villages in the West Bank.
The program will also help Vocational Training Centre graduates with
finding jobs or starting their own businesses. Also, this proposal
supports those trainees unable to pay the fees to work to earn their
tuition fees. This is the first Revision of the original ACT appeal for humanitarian
assistance in the Palestinian Territories MEPL-31. For other ACT members’
programs participating in this appeal, please refer to the original
appeal document. Project Completion Date: DSPR - 31 March 2004 IOCC - 31 May 2004 LWF (AVH) - 30 September 2004 LWF (VTC) - 11 November 2004 Summary of Appeal Targets, Pledges/Contributions
