An image depicting the following text, continued from the previous image, alongside a photograph of Ahmed Kamal Junina: That is why I titled the article: 'Displaced but not replaced: challenges, adaptations, and resilience of higher education in Gaza in the context of war and scholasticide.' The article offers a close look at the deliberate and ongoing destruction of Gaza’s higher education system. I wrote it with my colleagues and students in mind. These are the people who continue to teach and learn under bombardment, in classrooms reduced to rubble or scattered across displacement camps. This is for them. For all those who remind us, even in the darkest of times, that the pursuit of knowledge in Gaza endures and cannot be silenced.
Dr Junina kindly shared the following introductory statement to accompany its publication. #IntellectualResistance #EducationAsResistance #VoicesFromGaza
