The purpose of the workshops is to find solutions to problems that Gazans and Palestinians face on a day to day basis.

Do you have a few spare hours a week?  Can you teach, mentor or help those in need with advice to help them off their feet?  Can you show via Skype how to build houses without cement? Are you a health specialist or emergency specialist?

Yes to any of these questions or you can think of other ways to help them via skype or webcam or other internet technological means please come and join us on 30 August and give Hope over Fear to Gazans so that they can have a semblance of a life amongst the provocations and rubble.

 We are limited to 150 spaces per workshop please may we ask you to register to save your place. Please note that your details will only be used for the workshop purposes for the day.

Currently Gazans are unable to leave their open ‘prison’ and we as outsiders are unable to enter as the Rafah border in Egypt is closed more often than not and the Erez crossing via Israel is time consuming and there is no knowing whether one can cross into Gaza or not.
