Al Saraya works in the oppressive setting of the Old City in occupied East Jerusalem. Amid tensions and escalating violence throughout 2017 and 2018 they continue to deliver life skills sessions for young people and children on topics related to identity, rights and responsibilities, leadership, expression and on dealing with peers.
By increasing young peoples' resilience, they become more effective positive agents for change in their communities.
