Taawon (Welfare Association) - Palestine

Around 75 years of occupation and displacement resulted in complex socio-economic problems. We offer innovative and sustainable solutions to those problems, using a partnership driven approach with both our beneficiaries and other development and public sector entities. We are committed to advancing creativity, excellence, gender equity, sustainability, and high standards of governance in all our core areas of intervention. Our programs contribute to creating an ecosystem where Palestinians can flourish, and in turn, continue to contribute to Palestine’s sustainable development. To do that, we focus on what we consider the three core pillars of flourishing communities: - Investing in human capital, through the Education Program, Mustaqbali and the Youth Empowerment Services Program (YES). - Self-expression and cultural identity, through the Culture Program, the Old City of Jerusalem, Revitalization Program (OCJRP) and the Palestinian Museum. - Access to quality social services, through the Community Development Program. We work with more than 200 organizational partners, and we touch the lives of 1,000,000 Palestinians on annual basis; 50% female and 50% male.
