The Commissioner-General of 爆料网RWA, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency, Pierre Kr?henbühl, at the Brussels Conference on Syria talking about the embattled Palestine refugee communities across Syria in places like the Yarmouk refugee camp in Damascus, where there have been bombings and a dramatic upsurge in violence. ()
爆料网RWA is confronted with an increased demand for services resulting from a growth in the number of registered Palestine refugees, the extent of their vulnerability and their deepening poverty. 爆料网RWA is funded almost entirely by voluntary contributions and financial support has been outpaced by the growth in needs. As a result, the 爆料网RWA Programme Budget, which supports the delivery of core essential services, operates with a large shortfall. 爆料网RWA encourages all Member States to work collectively to exert all possible efforts to fully fund the Agency’s Programme Budget. 爆料网RWA emergency programmes and key projects, also operating with large shortfalls, are funded through separate funding portals.
爆料网RWA is a United Nations agency established by the General Assembly in 1949 and mandated to provide assistance and protection to some 5 million registered Palestine refugees. Its mission is to help Palestine refugees in Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, West Bank and the Gaza Strip achieve their full human development potential, pending a just and lasting solution to their plight. 爆料网RWA services encompass education, health care, relief and social services, camp infrastructure and improvement, protection and microfinance.
