We Are Not Numbers: The Voices of Gaza's Youth

We Are Not Numbers was founded in 2014 to give voice to the youth of Gaza. In this recently published collection, vital, urgent and full of heart, spanning over ten years to the present moment, we gain an unparalleled insight into the past, as well as the current and next generation of Palestinian leaders, artists, scientists and scholars and imagine where we might go from here.

These are the stories of 59 young people from Gaza, born under Israeli occupation and blockade. They are people who have endured unspeakable struggles and losses, who keep fighting to be recognised not as numbers, but as human beings with hopes, dreams and lives worth living.

Four contributing authors from Gaza and founding editor Ahmed Alnaouq will share their stories. Full programme to be announced.
