The University's outreach strategy integrates academic expertise, student engagement and community partnerships to deliver tangible health benefits across Palestine.

Institutional delivery model: key implementation arms

Outreach connects supervised student learning with community needs. Academic staff and students work with public health services, schools, municipalities, community organisations and health partners to organise preventive checks, share accessible health information, refer participants for further care and provide practical or psychosocial support. Each example below identifies the organising university unit, the community beneficiaries and the services delivered.

Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences

Medicine, nursing, optometry, pharmacy, dentistry, physiotherapy and laboratory medicine programmes support supervised community delivery. Students and faculty lead free medical days and preventive campaigns in marginalised and rural areas, providing consultations, laboratory tests and awareness sessions on hygiene, chronic diseases, reproductive health and mental wellbeing. In 2025, activities included school dental and vision checks, community laboratory testing, diabetes and hypertension education, vaccination guidance, rabies prevention and women's health awareness.

Faculty of Veterinary Medicine and Agricultural Engineering

Nutrition, food-safety and animal-health expertise supports schoolchildren, teachers, farmers and rural families with healthy diets, safe food production and zoonotic disease prevention, often in partnership with local NGOs. The Faculty's 2025 activities included school nutrition education, food-label training for teachers and rural animal vaccination against rabies. Its safe-agriculture (Pal-GAP) work supports food hygiene, safe production and protection from pesticide-related risks.

An-Najah National University Hospital (NNUH)

The Hospital provides a clinical route for referral and follow-up, contributes to awareness initiatives, organises free medical days and supports community-facing health projects and student volunteering. The 2025 Pink October fair included registration for free breast screening at the Hospital; a hospital sepsis campaign disseminated information on symptoms, risks and prevention; and the Mariam Joy programme offered students a structured route to companionship volunteering for children with cancer.

Sports facilities and sport programmes

The University's modern sports facilities and academic sports expertise promote physical activity among students, staff and community members. Facilities host community tournaments, fitness programmes and awareness events, including inclusive activities for women, youth and persons with disabilities. In 2025, the University hosted a tournament for eight community sports academies, took part in school-based sport and reported approximately 1,600 participants in its third national marathon.

Community Service Center (CSC)

The Center coordinates student volunteering through the Community Service and Sustainable Development course and delivers practical support for vulnerable households, older residents, refugee camps and community organisations. Its established Psychosocial and Social Support, Elderly Care and Housing Reform programmes link health education with social inclusion and safer living conditions. 2025 examples include the Qabalan elderly medical day, free vision checks for vulnerable families, psychological relief activities and nursing-home visits.

Psychosocial and Social Support Programme · Housing Reform Programme · Elderly Care Programme

Student health associations

Student volunteers organise health campaigns, blood-donation drives, nutrition workshops and awareness days on diabetes, smoking cessation and women's health, building leadership and civic responsibility while serving the community. In 2025, laboratory medicine students delivered a free medical day, medical students led Blue November screening and nursing students provided school and family health education.

Health-care services

University clinics and health services extend preventive and curative support to students, staff and community members, including primary healthcare, mental-health counselling, vaccination programmes and first-aid training. A 2025 announcement advertised monthly metabolic-health screening for adults aged 40 and above; outreach reports also document referrals to the hospital and the university eyeglass unit.

Health collaborations

Delivery is strengthened by cooperation with the Ministry of Health, education directorates, municipalities, the Palestinian Red Crescent, UN agencies (UNFPA, WFP), community associations and other partners.

Dates shown are official publication dates; where the source gives a separate activity date, it appears underneath.

Hygiene, infection prevention and safer living conditions

Community education addressed vaccination-related concerns, prevention of rabies and recognition of serious infection. Medical students offered mothers guidance on expected vaccination symptoms and warning signs, while rural rabies work combined public education with veterinary prevention. The Community Service Center delivered personal hygiene supplies and repaired sanitation, water and drainage in vulnerable homes, including in Old Askar refugee camp. These activities complement the University's established school hygiene and first-aid outreach.
