Rami El-Khateib is the founder of the School Olympics Project, which encourages the Palestinian school kids to disconnect from the virtual and internet being, in order to give them a chance to make and communicate with new friends in a fun and entertaining way.
Rami and his dedicated team have started with this change last year, when they gathered 200 kids from 10 different schools around Palestine to participate in entertaining Olympic Games that established the friendship between kids of the same school and also to give the opportunity to engage with different kids from other schools and cities.
Olympics competition is planned to take place every year as there are more schools requesting to join this program, the schools are very enthusiastic to join because they realized the importance of such activities that many kids are unable to participate in this modern world. Rami focuses on bringing traditional and group building games that help kids to play collectively even after the Olympics are over.
The School Olympics Project delivers strong social and community change that defends equality for girls, in that they have the same rights as their boy classmates and this would stress the mental behavior of the boys in order to easily accept the girls playing and enjoying time in sports like others.
