The Middle East Children’s Alliance (MECA) works for justice in the Middle East, focusing on the Occupied Palestinian Territories, Israel and Occupied Iraq. MECA is committed to protecting and advocating for the rights of all people, especially children. Our work is rooted in a deep sense of justice and we have a commitment to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and international and humanitarian law. Since 1988 MECA has brought over $8 million of much needed relief to besieged communities in Iraq and Palestine through emergency medical aid and direct aid to families and communities. MECA also supports children’s clinics and family mental health projects in various refugee camps thought the Occupied West Bank and Gaza, and supports community projects for children including playgrounds, children’s libraries and youth centers.
