Amman
- The Chairman and Founder of Talal Abu-Ghazaleh Global Group, His
Excellency Dr. Talal Abu-Ghazaleh, during his visit to the offices of
the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees
(UNRWA) in Jordan, discussed ways to enhance joint cooperation in
many important fields. The talks centered on several proposals and
directions that reflect Abu-Ghazaleh’s firm commitment in
supporting Palestine refugees.


Mr.
Olaf Becker, Director of UNRWA Affairs in Jordan, said during his
meeting with Abu-Ghazaleh that UNRWA seeks to modernize its services
to Palestine refugees, noting that this year the e-UNRWA platform was
launched enabling Palestine Refugees to update their details and
register online. This facilitates their access to the services
available at the agency including, education, health, relief, social
services, and microfinance, in addition to ensuring that they
preserve their rights and the rights of their children as refugees
from Palestine and in accordance with United Nations resolutions.


Mr.
Becker pointed out that the “All for Palestine Association”,
which was founded by Dr. Talal Abu-Ghazaleh, constituted a wonderful
initiative to showcase the positive contributions to society of
Palestinians around the world.


His
Excellency Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh affirmed his support for UNRWA’s
humanitarian efforts in serving Palestine refugees, noting that he
personally graduated from university with a scholarship from UNRWA,
for which he always feels grateful.


Dr.
Abu-Ghazaleh outlined the support provided by Talal Abu-Ghazaleh
Global Group to Palestine refugees, including the one million
master’s scholarship offered by Talal Abu-Ghazaleh Global Digital
University in the specialties of (artificial intelligence,
information technology, digital marketing, intellectual property, and
supply chain management), with the objective to be provided to more
than one million Palestine refugees.


His
Excellency Abu Ghazaleh, pointed out that the “All for Palestine
Association” is a unique and unparalleled association, as it is
neither for profit nor political, and its establishment came with the
aim of documenting Palestinian creativity and achievements around the
world, noting that the number of registered people on the All for
Palestine website is (10,000) around the world. While the number of
registered Palestinian inventors exceeded (5000).


The
attendees stressed cooperation in supporting UNRWA's mission in
documenting Palestine refugee data and UNRWA's vital role in that.

through the positions he held at the United Nations.

meeting, hosted by UNRWA, was attended by experts and specialists
from both sides in the fields of education, relief, social services,
documentation, registration and media staff.
