Code.X works with the Gazan Student Support Network to connect Gazan students with educational opportunities around the world. Together, Code.X and GSSN work directly with students from Gaza - those who have been displaced by the war and those still within the Strip - helping find placements at institutes of higher learning so they can continue their studies.
GSSN’s global network of college admissions professionals work to address students’ individual educational needs and interests, then advocate with boarding schools, universities, and foundations in order to open additional pathways for student success.
