  • REFUGEE CAMPS in the West Bank We Provide Services in 19 Palestine Refugee Camps in the West Bank
    PALESTINIAN REFUGEES IN WEST BANK & GAZA STRIP https://www.unrwa.org/palestine-refugees Nearly one-third of the registered Palestine refugees, more than 1.5 million individuals, live in 58 recognized Palestine refugee camps in Jordan, Lebanon, the Syrian Arab Republic, the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, including East Jerusalem. Palestine refugees are defined as “persons whose normal place of residence was Palestine during the period 1 June 1946 to 15 May 1948, and who lost both home and means of livelihood as a result of the 1948 conflict.” UNRWA services are available to all those living in its area of operations who meet this definition, who are registered with the Agency and who need assistance. The descendants of Palestine refugee males, including adopted children, are also eligible for registration. When the Agency began operations in 1950, it was responding to the needs of about 750,000 Palestine refugees. Today, some 5 million Palestine refugees are eligible for UNRWA services. A Palestine refugee camp is defined as a plot of land placed at the disposal of UNRWA by the host government to accommodate Palestine refugees and set up facilities to cater to their needs. Areas not designated as such and are not recognized as camps. However, UNRWA also maintains schools, health centres and distribution centres in areas outside the recognized camps where Palestine refugees are concentrated, such as Yarmouk, near Damascus. WEST BANK: (31 dec 2016) https://www.unrwa.org/where-we-work/west-bank Facts & figures : 809,738 registered Palestine refugees 19 camps 96 schools, with 48,956 pupils 2 vocational and technical training centres 43 primary health centres 15 community rehabilitation centres 19 women’s programme centres REFUGEE CAMPS IN the West Bank We provide services in 19 Palestine refugee camps in the West Bank.
