APPEAR Alumna @ BOKU

Heyam Al Najjar has defended her PhD at the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences (BOKU), Vienna in June 2023. Congratulations!

The research was embedded in the APPEAR project "Developing maker‐movement‐inspired training courses on renewable energy sources in the Gaza Strip ‐ Palestine"- MakingFutureEnergy4Palestine. The project's objectives focus on supporting graduate students and building the capacity of female engineering students in the higher education sector, particularly at the Islamic University of Gaza. This will increase the opportunities for women to enter the green job market, which is expected to grow in Gaza in the future.
