The Media Production Center was established after an agreement between Germany and the PLO in 1997. Following the agreement, The German Technical Cooperation Agency (GTZ) was responsible for the implementation of the project, while the University was responsible for providing the space and cadre for the Center. Moreover, GTZ provided training for the staff of the Center. Later on, the German DED institution supplied the center with equipment and training for producing multimedia educational material.
