A small oasis in the desert: bringing hope to children growing up in conflict in Gaza




Christian Aid Global show

Summary: The brightly coloured swings and roundabouts on Gaza’s beaches are filled with children whose laughter and chatter fills the air. Despite the ongoing conflict in this tiny strip of land, life goes on. But what is it like for a child or young person to grow up in Gaza? What effects does living in, and through, conflict have on children and young people, and what is life like for the people of Gaza? In this podcast, Communications Officer Amy Merone speaks to Majeda Al Saqqa from Christian Aid partner the Culture and Free Thought Association (CFTA), to find out how they supported children and young people following the conflict in November last year. #Gaza #MiddleEast #conflict #development
