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.
Holy Land Trust, in Bethlehem, enables creative programmes and projects – both locally and globally – that foster understanding, healing and empowerment of individuals and communities affected by the Israeli occupation.
Their community outreach team works tirelessly to strengthen communities and to unite local people in acts of non-violent resistance against the occupation.
Training programmes are run for all ages in non-violence and leadership – with unique workshops for women and children to enable them to rebuild self-esteem, and equip them with practical and creative strategies to deal with, and challenge, the oppression they experience daily.
The Trust’s 'Peace Research and Learning Centre' is a vital hub, from which they host conferences, run courses, offer outreach seminars and provide a comprehensive library. It also attracts scholars, experts and students from different fields from around the world – inspiring pioneering teaching and research on issues such as non-violence, peace, conflict resolution, non-linear thinking and healing traumas.

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.
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.
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.
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.
Amos Trust’s On Location exhibition introduces leading visual artists from Gaza and explores the motivations, frustrations and realities of being artists under siege. This 62-page, full-colour coffee table catalogue of the collection is printed on 200-gram silk art board and is the perfect gift for the art lover in your life.
All four webinars from the winter 2023 season are now available to watch again, featuring hour-long conversations with thought-leaders, Amos partners and friends including Fadi Kattan, Sally Azzam, Ahmed Alnaouq, Daoud Nasser, Wisam Salsaa, Mariam Salah, Kat Khoury, James Walmsley and Enas Ghannam from We Are Not Numbers in Gaza.
