Project Report | Sep 23, 2021
PROGRESS IS SLOW BUT STEADY

By Ilaria Ventura | Project Leader

With this report we want to make the best wishes for the new school year and celebrate the 50th anniversary of the opening of the Ephpheta Institute. The 6th of September of 1971 the first students got in and today it welcomes 180 students each year. The students already started the school year in the second half of August and they are excited to learn about their identity and their history to give a new and hopeful meaning to life in Palestine.

According to the World Health Organization, as of today the number of confirmed cases is 418,328 and the number of deaths is 4,220. According to Our World in Data, the share of people fully vaccinated against Covid-19 in Palestine is 11%, while in Israel is 64%. The United Nations Agency for Human Rights released a statement saying that it’s Israel responsibility to offer equal access to Covid-19 vaccines to Palestinians living in the Strip of Gaza and in the West Bank. It’s clear that Israel is obstructing the vaccination process in the Occupied Territories.

About the conflict between Israel and Palestine, after the Palestinian riots caused by the decision of the Supreme Court of Israel to evict some Palestinian residents of Sheikh Jarrah, the 21st of May Israel and Hamas accepted to end any hostility. The night of the 27th of June came into force an order of eviction for the Israeli settlers, the houses they built might become military bases or a Hebrew school while the Israeli government re-evaluates the property rights of the land.

Meanwhile the project focuses on the promotion of taking consciousness of the hearing disability by the parents and their children and on supporting them to face the economic and social difficulties that daily come. Two services are all about the kids: a kindergarten and an elementary school where students get the support they deserve and where they learn techniques on communication and interaction based on their condition.

Thanks to your donations, Aleimar can continue carrying out lots of activities that support students attending the schools of Crèche, Cremisan, Effetà, the Holy Child Program and the families at the community center. From June till this September Aleimar collected 73 USD$. It’s important to raise awareness about pacific ways to build a better future that aren’t based on conflict but rather on meetings to open communication at all levels.
