The siege over Gaza has put up many boundaries between Gaza and the outside world which made it isolated .That's why we aim to initiate Gaza knowledge cage to exchange knowledge with the outside world and inside Gaza organizations . Gaza Knowledge Cafe is a place where individuals meet to provide an open and creative conversation on a topic of mutual interest to share their collective knowledge,
ideas and insights, and gain a deeper understanding of the subject and the issues involved. We need your support to raise $10,000 to help create a better knowledge management . The funds raised will mainly go to:
Building our "shared chat area" .. Building a highly equipped space including both the software and hardware needed. " Together we can break Gaza siege "

My desire for people to engage with the subject and to learn through conversation:
•To gain mutual understanding of a complex issue
•To gain a deeper understanding of other people’s perspectives
•To gain a deeper understanding of one’s own views and thinking process
The Impact
•The world is a more complex place than it used to be - at times even chaotic - it is not always clear what is going on - we need to take time to UNDERSTAND
•We do not find the time these days to have open conversations, we are under pressure to make quick decisions
• In a time where people spend most of their days on social media , it a chance for individuals to meet face to face .
•Knowledge management for example should not be about creating and sharing ever increasing knowledge but understanding more fully the knowledge that we do have.
•The Knowledge Cafe operates under the assumption that people really have within themselves a greater level of insight than they are often conscious of. The Knowledge Cafe can tease this out.
•You hear yourself say things in Knowledge cafe conversations that you did not know that you knew.
•A Knowledge Cafe kind of crystallizes your knowledge
–New ideas are sparked.
–Fresh perspectives emerge ...etc
•With increased observation and reflection comes understanding – this paves the way for change.
•Some people just have problems expressing themselves
•Learning how to hear and to understand yourself
•The Knowledge Cafe is a little like an anti-inhibitor and thus stimulates discussion
