The University of Benghazi, Libya’s oldest and largest university, is experiencing a resurgence after a decade marked by devastating conflict. Following the 2011 uprising and the fall of Muammar Gaddafi, the university became a battleground between jihadist groups and forces loyal to Khalifa Haftar, resulting in widespread destruction. Despite ongoing challenges, nearly 70,000 students are currently enrolled, attending classes in temporary facilities. A newly constructed, expansive campus is scheduled to open this autumn, signaling a return to normalcy and a renewed focus on education. The rebuilding effort represents a beacon of hope for the future of Libya and its youth. The university, founded in 1955, aims to once again be a center of learning and progress for the nation.
