Board of Directors

The YWCA of Palestine believes in women’s empowerment through intergenerational leadership. 25% of our board members are young women aged 30 years or under at the time they are appointed. The board, headed by Haifa Baramki, oversees the association's strategic planning and works towards reaching our goal of achieving gender equality, just peace, and building a free and democratic Palestine. This is a great platform for young women to build their capacities, gain new experience, engage in developing our policies and most importantly realize their full potential as leaders in the association and in their own communities. The General Secretary of the YWCA of Palestine Amal Tarazi  is in direct contact with and reports to the Board of Directors.
