The Youth Development Association conducted a recreational activity for children at Al-Fares Camp in the Al-Sabra area of Gaza City, as part of the Association’s efforts to provide safe and positive spaces for children and help alleviate the pressures they face under difficult humanitarian and living conditions.

The activity included a variety of interactive and recreational games that gave children the opportunity to participate, express themselves, and engage with their peers in a positive and lively atmosphere.

The activity aimed to provide children with a space for play and recreation, strengthen social interaction and communication among them, and offer moments of joy away from the daily pressures and challenges affecting their lives in displacement settings.

The children actively participated in the activity, which helped create a positive atmosphere and encouraged teamwork and communication. The activity also contributed to supporting their psychosocial well-being and highlighted the importance of continuing to provide child-friendly activities and safe spaces within displacement camps and shelters.

This activity is part of a series of community-based interventions implemented by the Youth Development Association across the Gaza Strip in response to the needs of children and families, with a focus on creating supportive and safe environments where children can enjoy their right to play, recreation, and participation.
