Palestinians Teach Life

As educators, we have a unique opportunity help our students get accurate and truthful answers to the difficult questions they undoubtebly have right now.

Why Teach Palestine?

Teaching about Palestine is essential for fostering a comprehensive understanding of contemporary global issues; it intersects with topics such as what home and safety mean, immigration, Manifest Destiny, borders, environmental justice, and U.S. policy in the Middle East. Palestine is often overlooked or ignored in the curriculum, and many teachers feel unprepared to address. The Teach Palestine Project aims to support educators in incorporating these important narratives into their classrooms, providing resources and guidance to enhance their confidence. By doing so, we not only enrich our students’ perspectives but also ensure that they engage thoughtfully with a region that is increasingly at the center of global attention.
