Helping kids get a picture of life in occupied Palestine
Gawain Little speaks to the people behind a new educational resource aimed at educating children in Britain about the lives of children living under Israeli occupation

"THE project is about sharing different aspects of our communities to develop greater understanding … We have only used the children’s voices as we wanted it to be about them, about their lives.”

This is how Edukid CEO Chris Turner describes their current joint project with the National Union of Teachers and the General Union of Palestinian Teachers.

Edukid describes itself as a Christian charity that works towards “a vision of a world free from the effects of war and poverty, where each child has an education and opportunities to fulfil their dreams.”
