Master plan for Education in East Jerusalem 2035 (in Arabic)
East Jerusalem suffers from a severe shortage of schools and educational facilities, with the majority of schools operating in structures originally built for residential use. This publication presents the first physical development masterplan for East Jerusalem. The IPCC conducted comprehensive fieldwork between 2014 and 2016 to identify the physical needs and shortages of classrooms and facilities, as well as the future needs for educational facilities ranging from kindergartens to high schools across all neighbourhoods in East Jerusalem. The masterplan applied planning standards for educational institutions and facilities to identify shortages and needs for the target year 2035. The city was divided into four areas: northern neighbourhoods, central neighbourhoods, southern neighbourhoods, and neighbourhoods separated from the city by the separation wall.
