1993
25th Annual Convention of the
United Holy Land Fund.
|
SUMMARY:
| The United Holy Land Fund
was founded in 1968 in the United States. In 1992-1993 it
supported more than 100 organisations in the Occupied
Territories and Palestinian Refugee Camps inside and
outside occupied Palestine. The conference, attended by Mr. Khamis Ghosheh of PASSIA, began with a seminar on Jerusalem led by various religious figures in Jerusalem. Seminars on economy, politics, education and culture were presented by university professors and councillors. Seminars on health and social issues were overseen by doctors, medical councillors and other professionals working on the ground, particularly in Gaza. Recommendations for improvement were made and stated in a press conference which concluded the three days of meetings.
