Abstract

Palestinian universities lack resources, have restrictive (inter)national mobility opportunities, and are faced with numerous security measures. This paper analyses to what extent entrepreneurial transformation at these universities is taking place and how it is related with the political, economic and cultural complex setting in which they operate. It combines a literature review with findings of a mixed methods study at four universities applying the entrepreneurial university framework of the European Commission and OECD. Findings indicate that staff and students are more negative than positive about the entrepreneurial status of their institutions, with students being more critical than staff. At each of the universities, international donor supported entrepreneurial activities are starting up as a way to overcome youth unemployment. The author concludes that Palestinian universities are to be understood as engaged universities that increasingly stimulate their students to act entrepreneurially. Rooted in the context of the Palestinian cause, they contribute socially and culturally to their local communities. Furthermore, the author states that in a developing context the notion of an entrepreneurial university as an important contributor to innovation through research does not apply. He calls for rethinking the innovation-driven Triple Helix concept when applied in low-income countries, with ‘donor-pushed’ and ‘society-driven’ as new typologies for stakeholder cooperation.
