REPORT: Palestinian students compete for prestigious Hult Prize

Students from from the Palestinian Territories have taken part in the annual international Hult Prize for the second year in a row.

Eleven university teams competed in the first stage of the annual international competition.

The 2017 Hult Prize is themed “Refugees - Reawakening Human Potential” focusing on restoring the rights and dignity of 10 million refugees by 2022.

The competition organized by the Clinton Global Initiative and the Hult International Business School, will secure a one million dollar investment in the winning startup.

Competitors gathered in a small hall to present their social enterprise idea to a panel of five judges.

A group of architectural students from the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem made it through to the second stage.
