Urban planning analyses of refugee camps : Jabalia as case study - Gaza Strip, Palestine
An article published in : International Journal of Science and Research, vol. 5, no. 4, April 2016, p. 678-688Abstract: The Gaza Strip is a tight area with more than 1.8 million inhabitants. Since the beginning of the last century, and as other
Palestinian areas, Gaza Strip was subject to direct occupation. The occupation tightened laws and regulations and increased obstacles,
meanwhile it established settlements in a method that besieges existing Palestinian urban areas and leads them to develop in a way that
serves the occupation, particularly the security side. This research begins with background information on Palestinian refugees in Gaza,
sees that camp Improvement Strategies should called for adoption of the future urban planning, increasing the accommodation capacity
of the built-up area, activating the environmental resources protection laws and played down the issue of the land properties when
preparing the comprehensive plans. In this study reviews options for addressing the problems faced by Palestinian refugees in Gaza,
Recommendations: After discussing the topic through a analyses of the Current Conditions , Land availability, Population distribution,
Land requirements, Overcrowding, Public Spaces problems inside the camps , Sustainability in Gaza Strip, socio-economic situation ,
Unemployment problem and Population density in Jabalia Camp. The most urgent priorities in jabalia refugee camp are: Renovation
and expansion of shelters, improvement of the infrastructure, especially the asphalting of streets and improvement of Places and open
Spaces areas inside the camps. It is necessary that such improvement should have a solid economic feature creates real job opportunities
that contribute in economic develo
Exploring postnatal maternal morbidity through home-visits : a prospective community-based study in a Palestinian rural village, West Bank
The objective of this study is to determine the incidence, the magnitude and types of postnatal maternal morbidity during the first and seventh week, and at three months after birth in a Palestinian village.
Among the women visited the first week after birth, 107 (55.2%) women reported one to three morbidities, and 56 (28.9%) women reported four-ten morbidities. Among the women visited during the 7th week after birth, 74 (39.8%) women reported one-four morbidities, while 50 (26.6%) women visited at three months after birth, reported one-four morbidities. The most frequently reported morbidities were pain, fatigue and problems related to breast (cracked/sore nipples, engorgement), wounds/stitches, perineum, extremities and elimination. We referred 34 (17.5%) women for further medical care during the first week after birth due to bleeding, high blood pressure, high temperature, and potential infection.
Maternal morbidities were common among Palestinian women during their perpireum period. This suggests the need to implement postnatal home visiting programs to help the women in need and to reduce maternal and newborn morbidities.Theodor-Springmann Foundatio
Integration of Sustainability in Engineering Education in Palestine
Supporting engineering education is considered as one of the main goals that lead to strong Palestinian economy due to the strong interactions and synergy effects between education and the economy. Engineering education is considered a mid-point that connects natural resources at one side to industrial products at the other side. To keep this connection in a sustainable manner that guarantees maintaining these resources for the longest time of life, engineering courses and programs are designed by integrating sustainability aspects into engineering education in order to increase productivity resource efficiency without damaging the environment.The focal point of this paper is the academic faculties of engineering where education and training courses are designed and delivered on one hand and innovation and research are fostered on the other hand. This paper demonstrates an overview of the potential contributions of academia in altering the attitude of industries toward more sustainable resource consumption and capacity building for implementing sustainable engineering. Bachelor and master engineering programs will be considered in the paper. Cooperation and partnership between higher educational institutions and industry will be addressed in the context of sustainability and taking into account national and international indicators for this partnership
