MISSION
To build a community of engaged citizens united by a transformative ethos for positive change

OUR STRATEGIC AIMS
01
Recruit Talent with the Potential for Future Leadership
Horizons stands for identifying and cultivating future leaders, not just students with strong academic records. Our brand reflects a sharp ability to spot raw potential—young people with vision, resilience, emotional intelligence, creativity, and a deep commitment to impact. We look beyond traditional metrics to find those ready to redefine what success looks like.
02
Develop Excellence Through Transformative Programs
At Horizons, excellence is holistic. While academic preparation is important, we are defined by our ability to deliver transformational growth. Our students become globally competent leaders who are culturally fluent, ethically grounded, and forward-looking. The brand must be synonymous with rigorous, values-driven, world-class development.
03
Build a Global Network and Community of Leaders
Horizons is more than a program—it’s a lifelong community and global force for change. Our brand represents a powerful, mission-driven network committed to justice, equity, and opportunity for Palestine and the world. It is a source of pride, support, and connection for every student, alum, partner, and donor.
