Yaffa association

Yaffa is a young Swiss NGO created during the 2021 war in Gaza. Yaffa aims to develop bridges between Switzerland and Palestine in the field of psychosocial intervention. The approach we adopt is multidisciplinary, based on interactions between social workers, psychologists, physiotherapists and artists. Yaffa's first project is "Smile" launched in Gaza in October 2021. The project consists of a large community-based psychosocial support program for Gazan children and their families in the most disadvantaged neighborhoods of the Gaza Strip where international NGOs do not dare to intervene, because of their extreme precariousness and the violence that reigns there.
