THINK TANK

Curating a collective of intelligent, inquisitive, and empowered youth, capable of identifying gaps within the community, that have prevented Palestinians and their allies from being amplified and taken care of physically and mentally.

Operating as a think tank pursues the goal of critical revolutionary discussions with scientific theory, advancing creative initiatives and projects.

TRAININGS

To advance the physical, intellectual and psychological well-being of youth, particularly in Little Palestine.

We aim to fulfill the soul of youth, community, and those who are involved in the movement, while also serving as a potential finance generator for the individuals who teach, relevant in an effort to detach from Western institutions.

community

Everything we do is for inspiring community, centering Palestine, and enhancing the collective.

Community sessions, small or large, serve the purpose of curating intimate bonds between diverse groups/individuals involved in the struggle, ‘taking space’ in the urban setting, whilst reaching out to the masses.
