Playgrounds Project: Safe Playgrounds for Children

Project Overview
Through this project, Sharek Youth Forum aims to establish safe playground equipment in suitable environments, especially in the marginalized and rural areas which lack such recreational facilities. Sharek Youth Forum has established 11 playgrounds in rural areas and villages in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip for the benefit of children in these areas so that they can spend their spare time in a safe environment. The idea is that Palestinian children, like other children throughout the world can play, have fun and enjoy their childhoods.
