Call to Action: Help children in Palestine and beyond

Help children in Palestine and beyond exercise their right to play by supporting the translation of the IPA Play in Crisis toolkit into Arabic.

In recognition of International Day of Play 2025, help us protect the right to play, and particularly so for children facing conflict and crisis. All of us at IPA Scotland and IPA branches worldwide are coming together to launch a vital campaign.

To translate the IPA Play in Crisis Toolkit into Arabic and distribute it into the hands of frontline workers and organisations supporting children in Palestine and other Arabic-speaking regions. In times of war and displacement, play is not a luxury, it is a lifeline. The Play in Crisis Toolkit offers practical, trauma-sensitive ways to protect play in the harshest of conditions but it must be accessible to those who need it most. Let’s stand together to make play possible — even under occupation, even in crisis. Please consider pledging your support to our campaign, you can find out more here.
