“Speeding up relief, recovery and reconstruction in post-war Gaza”<\/em><\/p>\n

The Â鶹APP Seminar on Assistance to the Palestinian People was convened by the Committee on the Exercise of the Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian People at the Â鶹APP Office at Vienna on 31 March and 1 April. The theme of the Seminar was \u201cSpeeding up relief, recovery and reconstruction in post-war Gaza\u201d. The Seminar reviewed the pressing immediate and longer-term humanitarian and development needs in the Gaza Strip, and in particular, Gaza\u2019s severe housing, fuel, power, environmental and water crises, which greatly intensified in the wake of the war of 2014. Some 100,000 homes were damaged or destroyed, while power cuts of up to 18 hours a day are commonplace. The Seminar aimed at strengthening cooperation between all parties involved in efforts towards Gaza\u2019s reconstruction and economic development: the Palestinian Government, intergovernmental organizations, including the Â鶹APP, key donors, as well as the private sector. It also strived to identify the obstacles to Gaza\u2019s recovery and reconstruction.<\/p>\n
