UNRWA is more than an agency. We are teachers helping children learn, nurses providing healthcare, social workers supporting families and frontline staff meeting needs on the ground every day. Behind the disinformation are real people, real needs and real rights. #UNRWAworks

Across #Gaza and the occupied #WestBank, including East Jerusalem, UNRWA teams continue supporting #Palestine Refugees. In Gaza, more than 100,000 children accessed in-person learning during the first weeks of the school year, an important step towards expanding access to education across the Strip. In the occupied West Bank, our 4,500 UNRWA personnel continue providing education, health and other essential services, including support to thousands of Palestine Refugees displaced from camps in the northern West Bank.   #UNRWAworks  #FundUNRWA Full report: unrwa.org/resources/reports/…

Many thanks @dubravkasuica for the good discussion. @UNRWA has immense humanitarian and strategic value in the region, with expertise difficult to replicate. We will reform to meet today's challenges & ensure assistance reaches those who need it most. EU support is essential.
Good exchange with @CFSaundersUN today on @UNRWA’s vital role in supporting Palestinian refugees. Its education, healthcare and humanitarian services are essential for millions and for regional stability. The EU remains committed to supporting the Agency and I welcome its ongoing reforms.

“At my age, I need regular care and medicines to keep going. Displacement has made everything harder but knowing I can still come here and receive medical care gives me reassurance,” says 80-year-old Jameela. Through its health centres in #Gaza, UNRWA continues to provide essential healthcare and support to people in need. For patients like Jameela, access to care means treatment, reassurance and dignity in difficult times. #UNRWAworks #FundUNRWA

UNRWA remains the largest humanitarian provider in #Gaza, supporting more than 1.7 million people with education, healthcare, water, sanitation and other essential services. UNRWA Commissioner-General a. i. Christian Saunders says: “The window of opportunity is narrowing. But it has not yet closed. There is still an opportunity - and an obligation - to act. To uphold international law. To protect the rights and dignity of the Palestinian people. To sustain the institutions that serve them. And to preserve the possibility of a just and lasting peace. This is not a call for charity. It is a call for responsibility.” #UNRWAworks #FundUNRWA
