Empowering the Next Generation Through Storytelling

This project engages 100 children from five Palestinian schools in storytelling using traditional Palestinian puppet characters. Through this initiative, children recall their heritage, express their identities, and build communication skills, fostering a deeper connection to their cultural roots.

In a region with limited creative outlets, the project provides a safe space for self-expression and cultural exploration. By using storytelling as the primary tool, it strengthens identity and encourages peacebuilding within communities.

As a pilot initiative, this project lays the foundation for expanding heritage-based storytelling, ensuring that Palestinian children remain connected to their history and empowered to share their narratives.
