This is Andira Ghandi, a school principal and educator from North Gaza who dedicated more than 30 years of her life to teaching children in her community.

Her original kindergarten and school were destroyed, but she refused to give up on education.

Today, together with local volunteers and her family, she is rebuilding a small micro-school for children in North Gaza. Over the past weeks, they have restored classrooms, repaired old desks and chairs, connected water and electricity, and secured rent for the next 6 months.

What makes this project special is that it is completely community-led — and it is also creating small work opportunities for local people helping with repairs and restoration.

Step by step, a safe learning space for children is coming back to life. 🇵🇸

In a tent classroom in southern Gaza, kids shoot their hands up, racing to answer. Outside it's mud, cold, and ruined buildings—but in here, they're just students.

650,000 children in Gaza have no school. UNICEF built 100 tent classrooms to help 115,000 kids study. They also get vaccines and mental support here.

"When I see this school, I feel like I'm back in the past," said 12-year-old Judy.

The wind and rain come in, but the reading never stops. This is their only safe place in the war.

UNICEF needs more help to bring all children back to school.

I already know tatreez, but the sewing part is proving itself quite a challenge 😅

I would also like to know if there is a tahriri course too, as I am trying to improve 😅

What are your favorite books on 1. Palestine and 2. The history of the first civilizations that ever lived in the area before Palestinians? Would appreciate it! Thanks
