PROMOTING CHILDREN, YOUTH, AND WOMEN, EDUCATION AND PSYCHOLOGICAL WELLBEING IN NABLUS –OLD CITY:

\Gladly, we restarted school support program activities at first days of February. This time we targeted 120 children aged between 7 to 9 years from 3 different schools. As usual, the program teachers provided Arabic language, mathematics and English language classes to targeted groups. We also continued our illiteracy program activities, providing Arabic language and mathematics classes for women and those who dropped out.

VOICE of KIDS

A weekly workshop was organized for voice of kid’s team in February, in which several entertaining activities –including several educational games- were carried out. Kids expressed their joy participating in this project!

HUMAN RIGHTS THEATER PROJECT:

As post-last month’s visit activity; children discussed the initiatives they made during January, this enhanced their debate and communication skills. Intensive training for next month’s show has already started as well!

SPORT FOR WOMEN AND GIRLS:

Sport classes for women and girls were continued in February. Women classes were conducted at the association’s headquarter, while girls’ classes were conducted at Al-Fatimia school. Both women and girls realize how important these sport classes are in enhancing their health.

ENGLISH CLASSES FOR WOMEN

Human rights theater project coordinator volunteered to provide an English course to women attending illiteracy classes. This course included basic English activities and exercises. Attendees considered this course an important one since they are going to practice what they have learnt in it with their children, helping them building their English skills as well.
