Established 2002, the Community Bridge Initiative (CBI) Society is a developmental and humanitarian organization and aims to contribute to improving the quality of life of marginalized communities, build constructive channels and dialogue between disputes and develop community capabilities. With the financial assistance of OFID, CBI Society builded two computer laboratories, which enables CBI staff to provide training courses to women and youth in order to develop skills to enable them finding qualified work. Annually, 220 Palestinian women and 300 graduates are receiving training courses in the field of information technology. The total cost was estimated at US$108,238.
