Wafaa El-Derawi, our #Gaza Director, shared these reflections with us after one year of this so-called #ceasefire:
Now is not the time to stop, we know what it means to be left with nothing. One year under the so-called ceasefire hasn’t brought neither #safety nor #dignity.
We want to build schools that restore hope to children who have lost so much. We want to sing with them, even amid all this devastation .. We want to hold them close, in whatever way we can, and remind them that they are not forgotten.
