Partnering for Impact

Home / What We Do / Partnering for Impact

At BuildPalestine, we believe that no single initiative can transform a system—but collaboration can.

We see our role as a connector and catalyst within Palestine’s social entrepreneurship ecosystem. From grassroots changemakers to global allies, we work to build a thriving network of individuals and institutions committed to sustainable, locally led development.

Our ecosystem-building efforts focus on four key areas:

  • Technical Collaboration: We partner with mission-aligned organizations to deliver tailored support—whether that’s delivering technical workshops, facilitating learning sessions, or co-implementing programs that align with our shared vision for a liberated, thriving Palestine.
  • Strengthening Local Infrastructure: We collaborate with incubators, funders, and support organizations to ensure Palestinian social entrepreneurs have access to the resources they need to grow.
  • Global Partnerships: We engage with a worldwide network of partners—philanthropic institutions, diaspora communities, knowledge hubs, and ecosystem builders—who share our belief in Palestinian leadership and liberation through social innovation.
  • Spaces for Collective Action: Through convenings, research, and shared learning, we create platforms for strategic collaboration across sectors and borders.

Together, we are reshaping the development narrative in Palestine: from dependency to dignity, from external agendas to local ownership. We invite partners who are ready to co-create, not dictate—and to build a future rooted in equity, trust, and collective power.

Landscape of Social Entrepreneurship


Developed through tailored surveys and an in-depth desk review, in 2024 we published a 56-page report entitled The Landscape of Social Entrepreneurship in Palestine in Arabic and English that analyzed survey data from 82 social enterprises across Palestine.

Key findings highlight the need to raise awareness of social entrepreneurship across society—from local organizations to policymakers. Institutionalizing and incentivizing social entrepreneurship is crucial to strengthening self-reliance and reducing dependence on foreign aid.
