Ref: 51/2023

Date: 25 September 2023

On Saturday, 23 September 2023, representatives of the Palestine’s Children Council-Gaza Strip, which is established and supervised by the Palestinian Centre for Human Rights (PCHR), participated in a dialogue with the United Nations (UN) Special Representative of the Secretary-General on Violence Against Children, Dr. Najat Maalla M’jid, along with dozens of children from the Middle East, Europe, and Africa. On the margins of the UN General Assembly 2023, Dr. Najat holds 3 dialogues, all designed with the same objectives and methodology: a dialogue with children from the Americas, another with children from Europe, Middle East, and Africa, and the last one with children from Asia and the Pacific.

Collaborating with civil society, Dr. Najat conducts these interactive sessions with children ensuring their voices are heard and engaging them by gathering their valuable perspectives and insights. These sessions will also address children’s queries, and seek their thoughts, actions, recommendations, and messages for decision-makers regarding travel, tourism, and violence against children. The outcomes of these meetings will be directly reviewed by the Special Representative in her presentation before the UN General Assembly 2023.

During the session, many children from countries participating in the dialogue talked about their suffering, the violence they are exposed to in their countries in the tourism and travel sector, and their experience in child rights advocacy.

Representative of Palestine’s Children Council, ‘Abdullah Tanira, talked about the special situation in Palestine due to the continued occupation and the suffering of children especially in the Gaza Strip which has been under the Israeli closure for 17 years and has become the largest open-air prison for more than 2.2 million people, 47% of whom are children. Tanira also highlighted the Israeli Occupation Forces’ (IOF) systematic measures and practices that have jeopardized all their rights, including their right to freedom of movement, tourism, and travel, have deprived Gaza children access to religious and tourist sites in the West Bank, including occupied East Jerusalem. Moreover, Tanira talked about denying Gaza children from their right to study in the Palestinian universities in the West Bank and vice versa.

Tanira also addressed IOF’s abuses and violence against children at the military checkpoints established between the Palestinian cities and the annexation wall during their movement between the Palestinian cities; negatively affecting children’s play and cultural activities. He also reviewed the challenges facing the Palestine’s children council members, including banning some of them from traveling abroad to participate in international conferences or meet their fellows in the West Bank. In the end, Tanira called for conveying the Palestinian children’s suffering to decision-makers in the world to work on solutions and achieve accountability and redress for children suffering.

  3. I want to say thank you thank you thank you to Ancient Dr Wealthy spell temple for everything so far. To everyone who doesn’t believe in spells, I was one of those ones at first. I wasn’t quite sure if I wanted to do this since I’ve tried other so-called spell casters and they did not work and were a waste of my time and money. However, when I read through the testimonials of other people at this website and after I talked to Dr Wealthy who answered all my questions and was very nice about everything, I decided to give it a try. I figured it would be my last try to get my guy back. So my story is that I was at my office when the guy I am in love with told me that he wasn’t in love with me and never will be and that he didn’t want to speak or see me again, especially since he was talking to this other girl. When I talked to Dr Wealthy, he let me know which spells would be most appropriate for me and I chose the ones that were to get him back to me and stay with me and want to marry me. As soon as he started on the spells, my guy came back into my life! It was a miracle to me and I’m so thankful for that. Things have been going well, and pretty much according to what Dr Wealthy said would happen. He’s always there when you need him and that’s also after the spell is done. I’m still waiting for the spells to completely manifest, but with all that has happened so far I’m very happy because given only four months ago in March, if you asked me or my friends if I would have anticipated how things were right now no one would believe it!. contact is email address wealthylovespell@gmail.com

  5. i promise Dr.Wealthy if my husband come back i will share testimony about him

    My name is Davena, I’m from California in the USA. I want to use this opportunity to thank my great doctor who really made my life a pleasurable one today. This great man Dr.Wealthy brought my husband back to me, i had three lovely kids for my husband, about four years ago my husband and I had been into one quarrel or the other until he finally left me for one lady. I felt my life was over and my kids thought they would never see their father again. I tried to be strong just for the kids but I could not control the pains that tormented my heart, my heart was filled with sorrows and pains because I was really in love with my husband. Every day and night i think of him and always wish he would come back to me, until one day i met a good friend of mine that was also in a situation like me but her problem was her ex-boyfriend who she had an unwanted pregnancy for and he refused to take responsibility and dumped her. she told me that mine was a small case and that i should not worry about it at all, so i asked her what was the solution to my problems and she gave me this great man email address. i was doubting if this man was the solution, so i contacted this great man and he told me what to do and i did them all, he told me to wait for just two day and that my husband will come crawling on his kneels just for forgiveness so i faithfully did what this great man asked me to do and for sure after two days i heard a knock on the door, in a great surprise i saw him on his kneels and i was speechless, when he saw me, all he did was crying and asking me for forgiveness, from that day, all the pains and sorrows in my heart flew away, since then i and my husband and our lovely kids are happy. that’s why i want to say a big thank you to Dr.Wealthy. This great man made me understand that there is no problem on earth that has no solution so please if you know that you have this same problem or any problem that is similar, i will advise you to come straight to this great man. you can email him at:wealthylovespell@gmail.com
