Right To Play

Right To Play began working in the Palestinian Territories in 2003, after striking agreement with the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) to work with schools in refugee camps.

In 2008, we initiated an after-school program with the Ministry of Education and Higher Education that was extended into classrooms and kindergartens. That same year, we launched community programming to promote youth engagement and leadership development.

In 2019, we extended our work to all 370 UNRWA schools in the West Bank and Gaza Strip thanks to the support of the Government of Canada.
