Munib R. Masri Development Foundation focuses on the education sector through four axes:
 

First: Primary education

The Munib R. Masri Development Foundation also contributes support to the primary and secondary education sector in Palestine and abroad. Projects in this category are comprised of infrastructure construction and rehabilitation grants for existing premises, and funding support for education organizations dedicated to the dissemination of international best practices to Palestinian schools in the areas of teacher training, classroom management and curriculum development specifically for the elementary, middle and high school years.

Second: University education

The Foundation completes its contribution to building university facilities in Palestinian universities in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, and focuses on developing scientific research, education quality and knowledge production.

Third: University grants and loans

The Foundation provides soft loans and refundable grants to help outstanding and creative university students under the name of "Munib Rashid Masri Fund for Academic Creativity". It is a fund dedicated to Palestinian students in the homeland and diaspora, covering more than a hundred annual scholarships at home and in the diaspora.

Fourth: Scientific research

The Foundation, in partnership with Al-Quds University and the University of Jordan, established the Al-Quds Academy for Scientific Research, which began building partnerships with international universities to develop scientific research in Palestinian universities. The Foundation also seeks to develop the infrastructure for scientific research in universities and to build research centers and laboratories.
