Description of the educational game
Amal-Tikva was created in a cooperation project promoted by Nexes and it is the result of the work of a group of teachers and educators.
This simulation game allows participants to take the role of specific characters in the context of Jerusalem, discovering the conflicts and the geopolitical situation in the territory, as well as the situations of injustice, helplessness and tension. This approach of the Palestinian situation through a game play allows, once the game is over, to have a reflection on the situation in Palestine, the difficult living conditions, the causes and consequences of the current conflict and the possible ways of a peaceful resolution.
