We, the members of humans without borders, believe that it is every child's right to grow and develop in a loving and supportive environment free of threats, and that this right should be unassailable and uncompromised.
We view the continuous disregard to the safety and wellbeing of Palestinian children as unacceptable and repugnant.
Therefore, we actively work to correct this situation through our commitment to helping Palestinian communities.
In this era of barriers and fences, one of our most important goals is creating and maintaining personal connections with the Palestinian children, youths and adults we meet through our work. It is our hope that with each connection we make, we also enhance understanding between our peoples and increase the chance to share our lives with each other on just and equal terms.
It is believed that by promoting direct, friendly contact between Palestinians and Israelis, humans without borders is contributing significantly to greater mutual respect in this troubled region.
