			About Nawa		The Palestinian educational system is in a parlous state. Approximately one in four Palestinians attend school or university, but the infrastructure established in 1948 in the West Bank and Gaza is under-equipped and burdened with obsolete amenities and materials. Over the last 50 years, owing to historical political circumstances, considerable disparities have emerged between the public and private sectors; between the regions in which education was guaranteed from 1967 until 28 August 1994 by the Israeli occupation administration, and those in which refugees have been attending UNRWA schools since 1950; and between the West Bank and Gaza, where the curricula have not been harmonized. Curriculum development issues are a priority for the Palestinians and there is an urgent need to develop their own curricula and their own educational system.
