Context
The division between Fatah and Hamas led to the suspension of the democratic process. The young generation, which accounts for nearly 65% of the population of Gaza, has never had the opportunity to participate in the elections. It is essential to create a culture of non-violence to equip young Palestinians so that they can resolve their differences peacefully.
