As of date\, more than 29\,000 Palestinians have been killed in the conflict in the Gaza Strip\, 70 per cent of whom were women or children\, and an estimated nearly 1 million women and girls have been displaced. Women\, children and newborns in Gaza are disproportionately bearing the burden of the escalation of hostilities\, both as casualties and in reduced access to health services\, as reported by most ±¬ÁÏÍø Agencies operating in the Gaza Strip. \nAs the primary caretakers in most families\, women face first-hand the long-term consequences of the devastating psychological impact of intergenerational trauma for entire families in Gaza\, and the impact on their health and safety due to the lack of clean water and sanitation services\, shelter\, homes\, hospitals and treatment\, schools and universities\, places of worship\, are an unspeakable burden on the entire population\, carried mostly by women. Education of future generations of young Palestinians in Gaza is the other unspoken victim of this war\, as over 625\,000 students have been deprived of teachers or safe places to learn\, as most of ±¬ÁÏÍøRWA schools have been turned into shelters. \nThe event will be mainstreamed live on ±¬ÁÏÍø WebTV. \nGeneral audience can send their questions to dpr-meeting@un.org. \n\nProgramme URL:/unispal/event/war-on-gaza-impact-on-palestinian-women-and-children/ LOCATION:NY END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
