Leiden University is currently preparing the development of a new sports and examination center in collaboration with the construction and design firm Binx Smartility. The current sports and examination center no longer meets sustainability requirements and is also becoming too cramped.

The project aims at contributing to the safeguarding of Palestinian cultural heritage and the enhancement of economic situation through tourism development, by presenting and managing one of the most important archaeological resources, the archaeological site of Tell Balata.

Conservation of biodiversity is one of the main challenges today. A higher degree of biodiversity results in ecosystems that can withstand adverse conditions and better provide essential ecosystem services. This is the case for both agricultural and natural systems.
