East Jerusalem: Abu Tor gets a new playground
After many years without anywhere to play, the children of the Palestinian neighborhood of Abu-Tor finally have a playground, following residents’ tenacious advocacy efforts vis-à-vis the municipality, with Bimkom assistance. Pressure from Bimkom has also resulted in the addition of six new classrooms, thus doubling the capacity of the local girls’ school – although more classes are needed.
