Volunteer with Palestinian Refugees & Study Arabic
- Palestine
About Program
The Volunteer with Palestinian Refugees program is an ideal opportunity for those who want to work, interact, and engage with Palestinian refugees who live in different living conditions. This program will give you the chance to organize and participate in activities and events that take place in refugee camps located in the city of Hebron.
The Volunteer with Palestinian Refugees is aimed at gathering internationals with Palestinians in order that they might get to know the refugee situation in Palestine. Through listening to the stories of Palestinian refugees, internationals will become more knowledgeable about how the occupation has affected, and still affects, their daily life.
As a participant in this program, you will have the chance to engage in social, educational, and community activities. These activities target youth and children, as well as women who live in the refugee camps.
