Exhibition showcases life in Palestine

Transcript

00:00In Between Wars, a new interactive exhibition that highlights the everyday struggle of Palestinians

00:10in the Occupied Territories, has been brought to the UAE by Médecins Sans Frontières.

00:15The exhibition, which has travelled from Paris to Amman, Jordan, and has now come to Dubai,

00:20aims to give visitors an idea of the traumatic conditions those living in the Occupied Territories

00:24face on a daily basis.

00:27From walking through the volatile streets of the West Bank and witnessing bombs dropping

00:31over Gaza, to stepping into a reconstructed MSF clinic and hearing testimonies of its

00:35patients.

00:36It's an audio-guided tour through different scenes in the exhibitions, throughout those

00:45different scenes, we try to address different issues, the everyday life, the difficulty

00:51maybe, of course, of the people living there, and our job as doctors, which is also sometimes

01:01very difficult.

01:02MSF's clinics in the Occupied Territories support war-wounded civilians through a variety

01:06of forms, from surgery and post-operative care, to specialised dressings, occupational

01:12therapy and physiotherapy, as well as mental health counselling.

01:16Without this aid, many Palestinians would get little or no medical support, with the

01:19blockade on Gaza making it incredibly difficult for hospitals to gain the necessary medication

01:24and supplies.

01:26In Between Wars is open to the public until November 28th at the Jamjar in al-Sakal Avenue,

01:31Al-Qoz.

01:32Entrance is free for all.
