Tulkarem Yurts Project

Building a Sanctuary of Resilience: The LOGICA Community Hub & Healing Centre

In the heart of ongoing conflict, where safety is scarce and trauma runs deep, a different kind of shelter is rising. Not made of concrete and steel, but of canvas and community—a sanctuary woven from resilience itself.

While our work continues from a small office, the overwhelming need for healing, unity, and economic survival has called us to think differently. To act immediately. That’s why we’re launching the Tulkarem Yurts Project: an agile, transformative community hub nestled within the grounds of a local school, bringing light directly to where darkness lingers.

This is more than a space. It’s a promise—a living, breathing response to war. A place where children laugh again, where mothers find support, where farmers and entrepreneurs regrow not just crops—but futures.

Our Vision: The Tulkarem Yurts Project - A Hub for Healing and Rebuild 

The Tulkarem Yurts Project is a holistic haven designed for recovery on every level—emotional, social, and economic. It’s a place where trauma is met with therapy, isolation with innovation, and despair with dignity.

Within this sanctuary, you’ll find:

🌿 The Heart Yurt – A Space to Gather and Grow
A large central tent for community meetings, cultural events, and collective healing sessions. Here, stories are shared, solidarity is built, and the rhythms of normal life slowly return.

🎨 The Healing Yurts – Mending Through Making
Two dedicated spaces where children and women engage in trauma-informed therapy through art, drama, and sports—guided by trusted local coordinators trained in turning creative expression into resilience.

🌱 The Enterprise Yurt – Seeds of Survival and Revival
A quiet, dedicated tent where small business owners—especially women farmers and food producers—receive support to restart, adapt, and sustain their vital enterprises. We focus on agricultural and food projects to ensure families are fed, livelihoods restored, and hope harvested—even in times of siege.

☀️ The Sunlit Square – A Safe Haven Under the Sky
A protected outdoor area for mothers to breathe, children to play, and communities to reconnect—a simple yet profound reminder that they are not forgotten, and not alone.

Why Yurts? A Model of Sustainable and Symbolic Innovation

We have intentionally chosen a structure of yurts for their profound symbolic and practical value:

• Rapid Deployment: Their modular nature allows for swift construction and adaptation as needs evolve, enabling us to begin healing work without delay.
• Cultural Resonance: The circular design fosters equality, connection, and inclusivity—there is no "head of the table," perfectly mirroring our community-led ethos.
• Cost-Effectiveness & Sustainability: This model offers a highly efficient use of resources, ensuring donor and investor funds are maximised for programmatic impact rather than expensive traditional construction.

A Scalable Model for Maximum Impact

This is not a static project but a scalable model for recovery. The Tulkarem Yurts Project is the first step in a larger vision to develop a network of supportive collectives across the Northern West Bank, all powered by our local coordinators who are deeply trusted by their communities.

Our Proven Foundation for Success

The success of this vision is already underway. Our coordinators are not just staff; they are community leaders chosen for their empathy and trusted relationships. They are already experts trained in using art, sports, drama, and creative thinking as tools to build resilience and provide emotional outlets for traumatised children and women. This centre will amplify their proven work, allowing them to serve 300-450 community members each week with structured programs.

Invitation to Give a Hand 

We are at a pivotal moment. We are curating a coalition of partners and donors who believe in investing in mobile infrastructure that heals and rebuilds desperate societies. This project represents a unique opportunity to fund a model of community recovery that is both immediately impactful and sustainably future-proof.
