June Highlights from the Arab Impact Ecosystem

From Gaza to Jordan, June reminded us why local leadership matters — and why consistent, strategic support is more essential than ever.

In Gaza, we continue to stand with Health Workers for Palestine in their mission to train a pipeline of medics and rebuild a functioning healthcare system. This month, we invite you to join Voices of Solidarity — a benefit evening of comedy, music and spoken word in London on 19 July to support this critical effort. Sign-up here.

In Jordan, two new programmes have launched to back early-stage social enterprises solving local challenges. Ten ventures recently pitched bold solutions, and five will receive support through a four-month EU-funded accelerator with SPARK and Impact Europe.

Meanwhile, our grantee Robotna has kicked off its AI Trainer Bootcamp with our support — equipping youth in the region with cutting-edge skills for the future of work.

Finally, we’ve opened a new bilingual survey to support the development of an upcoming report on the state of social entrepreneurship in the Arab region. If you’re a practitioner or enterprise, we invite you to share your experience and help shape this important research. Link in to fill in Arabic or in English.
