Gaza – Aita ash Shab – Gaza is a storytelling theatre project — a space where women who endured the wars in Lebanon and Gaza could reclaim their voices and share their lived experiences. Through this initiative, MSF highlights the often-invisible toll of war on women — as patients, survivors, and colleagues — while fostering empathy and understanding beyond statistics and headlines.
The play recounts the stories of Nour from Palestine, a young woman working as a Field Communications Officer for MSF in Gaza, and Nahla from Lebanon, a woman displaced by the war from Aita ash Shab and an MSF patient.
They narrate their daily realities of genocide, war, and displacement. They converse without ever meeting, presenting portraits of women who refused to surrender or be silent, insisting on raising their voices.
