Al-Zaytouna Centre for Studies & Consultations presents the academic study “Human Development Under the Palestinian Authority,” by Iqbal ‘Omeish and Ghina Jamal al-Din, who are both researchers at al-Zaytouna Centre.

This study discusses the social, demographic, educational, and health-related indices of the Palestinian people. It attempts to present a statistical comparative study on the various indicators of the life of the Palestinian people during the period 1993–2013, in the West Bank and Gaza Strip.

The chapter reviews the different demographic characteristics of Palestinians at home and abroad, and the state of education and culture among Palestinians, in addition to primary, secondary, and tertiary education during the same period. Since the overall picture cannot be examined without studying the health situation of the Palestinian people, the chapter also overviews general health indicators, in terms of services, hospitals, and health insurance, in addition to the impact of the occupation on the health sector.

This study is a academic study that was published in the Arabic book of al-Zaytouna “The Palestinian National Authority: A Study of the Experience and Performance 1994-2013,” edited by Prof. Dr. Mohsen Mohammad Saleh, 2014.

The study is available in Word & Pdf format.
