CLUBE AMIZADE
The CLUBE AMIZADE project, developed by Tiffany Williams, a Peace Corps Volunteer in Chicumbane, Gaza, tackles the high rates of teenage pregnancy and HIV among youth. Initially focusing on young women, it has evolved to also support young men. The project features two parts: engaging health activities using film, music, and games, and promoting digital journaling skills through typing programs and creative writing exercises. With challenges such as limited technology, it fosters community partnership and creative expression, striving for a healthier future for young people.
