As a child growing up among Israel’s Bedouin in the Negev, Amal Abu-Alkom was denied a formal education. In spite of obstacles, she founded and manages the nongovernmental organization “Bedouin Women for Themselves,” working to make changes for others like her.
As a guest of the Weatherhead School of Management, Abu-Alkom is visiting Cleveland to share the story of the impact she is having on advancing women’s education and entrepreneurship for her under-resourced community.
Come hear from Abu-Alkom during her talk, “Advancing Bedouin Women’s Education: A report from the field from activist Amal Abu-Alkom,” Monday, March 25, from 6 to 7:30 p.m. in Tinkham Veale University Center, Ballroom B.
