The International Rescue Committee's current work in the West Bank is centered on education. We implemented our innovative "Healing Classrooms" curriculum in 20 classrooms in early 2012, and are planning to expand the program to more schools in 2013.

Healing Classrooms encourages student engagement. Here, a student holds up a card for his teacher. Students frequently work in teams of three or four to share ideas and the teacher works with each smaller group, then the class as a whole.
