Wahat al-Salam - Neve Shalom
Projects & OutreachWAS-NS and the School for Peace initiated a meeting of the Forum to Free Ourselves from the Occupation with leaders of peace and human rights NGOs and left-wing parties.
Home > Oasis of Peace > Projects & Outreach
Wahat al-Salam - Neve Shalom gives practical expression to its vision of an egalitarian society through pioneering educational work at The School for Peace, Children’s Educational System and the Pluralistic Spiritual Centre. A Youth Club provides extracurricular activities for the community’s children. When funding permits, the community conducts humanitarian aid projects including, in recent years, summer camps for children from the West Bank.
Although they are presented together here, it should be understood that these projects are quite different in terms of their size and allocated resources, while the Humanitarian aid program is conducted on a voluntary basis as an initiative of WAS-NS members.
