Gaza City DSPR
DSPR (also known as NECC) run two vocational youth training centres in Gaza City. Unemployment is over 40% in Gaza and so the courses offered at these centres give students a better chance of finding work.
Aida refugee camp lives in the shadow of the Israeli separation wall. The camp is over crowded, with no space for children to play. Young people vent their frustration by throwing stones at Israeli watchtowers and into the neighbouring army camp.
Israeli soldiers respond with tear gas and sound bombs, arresting children and firing rubber bullets and live ammunition.
“Young people in Aida Camp believe it is normal to throw stones, to inhale tear gas, to hide from soldiers but this is not normal. We have to let them see what normal life is and to know what they should aspire to.” Abdelfattah Abusrour, Director of Alrowwad Centre for Culture & Arts.
Amos partner, Alrowwad teaches ‘beautiful resistance’ inspiring young people to channel their activism into creative non-violence using music, dance, drama, film and photography.

Gaza Appeal Donate now
Amos Trust is not an aid organisation. But how can we stand in solidarity with people in Gaza and the West Bank if we do not do all that we can to support them when we see so much suffering? 92% of homes in Gaza City have been destroyed or badly damaged and the infrastructure has been completely obliterated. Further north, in Jabalia, Beit Hanoun and Beit Lahia, the devastation is even worse. Please help.

Anne Jones’ Col du Tourmalet Challenge 16–17 June 2025
Last summer, Anne M Jones — grandmother, retired social worker and psychotherapist — cycled 1,900m up to the summit of Mont Ventoux. She was 82. She did it because she was horrified by the genocide in Gaza. A year on, the situation in Gaza is even worse — no aid has been allowed in since the 2nd of March and the entire population is being starved. Read Anne’s story.

Forest of Noise by Mosab Abu Toha Limited stock available
Barely 30 years old, Mosab Abu Toha was already a well-known poet when the current assault on Gaza began. After the Israeli army bombed and destroyed his house, destroying a library he had built for his community use, he and his family fled for their safety. Not for the first time in their lives. His new book, ‘Forest of Noise’ is now available from Amos Trust.

Gaza City We Are Not Numbers
Stories, not numbers. When the world talks about Palestinians living under occupation and in refugee camps, it is usually in terms of politics and numbers. But numbers are impersonal, and often numbing. We Are Not Numbers are a Palestinian youth advocacy organisation who tell the human stories behind the numbers in the news from Gaza.
