Siamo il Club dei Giovani Palestinesi (Palestinian Youth Club, PYC) per il calcio, basket, pallavolo e ping-pong, che vive ed ha base nel campo profughi di Shatila, a Beirut (Libano). Il progetto mira a riabilitare un centro nel campo profughi per creare uno spazio per i gruppi più vulnerabili, dove frequentare eventi e corsi di formazione per costruire una comunità forte, sana e coesa.
IT — Il nostro obiettivo
Il PYC è stato ufficialmente fondato nel 2010, ma è attivo dal 2005, riunendo le giovani generazioni e mantenendo sana la comunità nel difficile contesto del campo profughi di Shatila. Abbiamo più di 80 membri, ragazzi e ragazze di età differenti, ma non disponiamo di nessuno spazio comune o di un regolare accesso a un campo sportivo.
La nostra priorità è creare un centro sportivo e uno spazio sociale per continuare a coinvolgere i giovani e fornirgli degli strumenti per crescere. Vogliamo usare il centro in diversi modi per rispondere ai bisogni dell'intera comunità di Shatila.
EN — Our Goal
The Palestinian Youth Club (PYC) was officially established in 2010, but has been active since 2005, bringing the younger generation together and keeping the community healthy in the tough surrounding of the Shatila refugee camp. We hold over 80 members, consisting of boys and girls of different age groups, however, without access to any communal space or regular sports fields.
Our priority is to establish a sports centre and a community house to keep the youth involved and provide them with tools to grow themselves, catering for the needs of the entire community of Shatila next to sports.

EN — Planned Activities
The planned activities in the centre include:
Why is a sports centre important?
The Shatila Refugee Camp is based in Beirut's suburbs where the quality of life is very low. Not a lot of opportunities are offered to the Palestinan population who has a hard time accessing pubblic and private opportunities in Lebanon. It is important to offer an alternative space for young people who look to keep up a healthy life. A part of the indoor sports classes, the clinic and workshops we want to create a communal space in which the people of Shatila can come together talk, discuss, have fun and enjoy each other’s company and create a positive atmosphere in which we can create a better situation for all.
Where will the centre be located and how is it devided?
The located sports centre is in the middle of the Shatila Palestinian Refugee Camp, on top of an already existing building, on the 4th floor. The total surface is just about 90 m2 and will consists of a general area for the activities, and two rooms. Furthermore, there is an ability to expand and construct another floor on top.
What do you want to pay with the collected money?
PURCHASE OF EQUIPMENT
We will purchase materials for the activties, a floor-mattress for sports activities, fitness equipment, which will only be used for females to work out and different sport supplies.
On top of that, we need whiteboards for classes, lectures and workshops and a projector with screen for presentations. Then we need 2 laptops and a printer/copy machine for administrative purposes and basic office supplies. Finally, we also need furniture to decorate the centre.
