Palestinian children provide inspiration for Spanish musician <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

8 December 2010<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

Earlier this year, the image of thousands of Palestine refugee children <\/span>flying kites in a record-breaking effort<\/u><\/a>\u00a0made headlines. Now, it has provided the inspiration for a song; ‘Luces Errantes (Stray Lights)\u2019, by Spanish musician Ismael Serrano. The proceeds from the sales will fund projects for young refugee children in Gaza.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The song, premiered yesterday in Madrid, was written and recorded with the help of a group of children from the Edward Said Conservatory of Music in Ramallah.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cThe vitality of these children and my time with them is something that I will never forget,\u201d says the Madrid-born artist. He also emphasises the need for civil societies to be aware of the humanitarian situation in Gaza, and contribute to helping \u201ca community that really needs it\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

‘Luces Errantes\u2019 forms part of a fundraising drive by the Spanish Committee for UNRWA, the UN agency dedicated to Palestine refugees. Entitled the Cadena de Ayuda Humanitaria (Chain of Humanitarian Aid), the project aims to raise money and support through its website, <\/span>www.yotambienmesumo.org<\/u><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The blockade of Gaza, in addition to recurrent Israeli military incursions, has exacerbated the poor living conditions of the 1.5 million inhabitants of the 360 km\u00b2 area. Children are among the worst affected by the conflict. Under these circumstances, even flying a kite can be a symbol of hope.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The fundraising campaign is based on the construction of a virtual human chain of humanitarian aid.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

UNRWA Spanish Committee<\/strong>
\nThe Spanish Committee of UNRWA is the first national committee that UNRWA created. Established in 2005, its two key objectives are to inform the Spanish population about the living situation of 4.7 million Palestinian refugees and UNRWA\u2019s humanitarian work with them over the past 60 years. Furthermore, the Committee raises both public and private funds to support UNRWA in maintaining the quality of services provided to Palestinian refugees.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
