Program Description
As part of the Learning to Earning program, GlocalShift will deliver Gaza Stars, a six-month startup recovery and youth entrepreneurship program supporting economic and social recovery in Gaza through short-cycle training, mentorship, competition-based support, and seed funding. Targeting existing startups and aspiring entrepreneurs, with at least 40% participation from women and vulnerable youth, the program will be delivered through two tracks: the Recovery Track, which will support the rebuilding and revival of 150 viable pre-war startups, and the Innovation Track, which will enable 150 young people to develop, test, and prototype new business solutions responding to Gaza’s post-war economic and social needs.
