Lavoro mediterraneo: An-Najah National University

I am trying to help An-Najah National University find teaching staff and volunteers to fill the chronic short-fall in staff. We are having difficulties finding teaching staff who are willing to live and work in the besieged city of Nablus. The closure regime and checkpoints surrounding Nablus deter many people from coming to work here, and, as you can see from the long list of short-fall subjects below, the University is finding it difficult to attract Faculty members. Yet, many rewarding, professional opportunities exist and we would like to invite applications from interested people overseas, as well as local. The language of tuition is English.

The University is able to offer a salary and accommodation to successful applicants for teaching positions. Full details of the terms and conditions can be requested from the Public Relations Department, pr x5N najah.edu.

Positions for volunteers also exist - listed at the bottom of this message.

For more information about An-Najah National University see www.najah.edu.

Please circulate this message widely. And I apologise if you have already seen it in the various Palestine email digests.
