Note: Jess reflects on our work over the last six months, for our #PeaceBuilderVoices matched fundraising campaign. Until April 30th, all donations via our Big Give campaign will be doubled.

Solutions Not Sides is an impartial education charity which supports young people to speak about the Israel and Palestine conflict. We do this by bringing a Palestinian and an Israeli into their classroom so pupils can hear their perspectives. 

We facilitate a conversation, in a safe space, for pupils to ask questions, share their views, and learn from each other. 

At the launch of our annual matched fundraiser this year - which is now live - we asked two speakers who have been speakers in UK schools this year to share their thoughts about why they volunteered, especially at such a crucial and challenging time since the awful events of October 7th 2023 in Israel, and since in Gaza and the West Bank. We've themed the campaign #PeaceBuilderVoices.
