Doha, Qatar 12 February 2025 – Education Above All (EAA) Foundation, a global development and education foundation, with support of Qatar Fund for Development, has reopened the Al Fakhoora House, in Gaza, a vital education hub tragically destroyed during the war on the Gaza Strip which began in October 2023. This reopening marks a profound commitment to restoring access to quality education and empowering youth in conflict-affected communities.

Since its establishment in 2012, Al Fakhoora House has served as a central hub for student services and activities, playing a crucial role in supporting Qatar Scholarship recipients at different stages of their academic journeys. Prior to the war, students benefitted from consolidated student services, administrative support, flexible meeting and workshop spaces, academic advisory services, and a vibrant environment hosting social clubs, cultural events, and peer mentoring and alumni networking, to ensure continued engagement and professional growth.  With its re-opening, EAA looks forward to continuing this dynamic legacy.

Al Fakhoora Houses also plays a strategic role in oversight, communications and engagement, ensuring impact and sustainability of Education Above All’s projects in Palestine.  This function has been key to the success of EAA’s emergency response efforts in the Gaza Strip, providing on-the-ground collaboration with partners to inform and guide EAA’s efforts to ensure continuity of education for children and youth, regardless of the circumstances.

The reopening of Al Fakhoora House, standing resiliently amid tents in front of its original site, symbolizes not only recovery but also the unyielding spirit of the community it serves. This event represents a renewal of hope and a reaffirmation of EAA Foundation’s commitment to ensure that education continues as a lifeline for those in crisis.

 

Talal Al-Hothal, Director of the Al Fakhoora Programme at Education Above All Foundation, commented, “The reopening of Al Fakhoora House is more than just the restoration of a building—it is the revival of a vibrant space for learning, resilience, and empowerment. As Gaza rebuilds, this facility will once again serve as a cornerstone of academic and personal growth, providing essential support and opportunities for students to engage, collaborate, and excel. By reigniting this hub of knowledge and community, we reaffirm our unwavering commitment to ensuring that education remains a beacon of hope and progress for Gaza’s youth.”
