Preview

Description: This report reviews a United Nations strategic assessment of UNRWA, requested by the Secretary-General, which evaluates the Agency’s operations, impact, and risks under political, financial, and security constraints. The assessment reframes UNRWA not as a rights-based institution but as a political burden, proposing four scenarios ranging from inaction and service reduction to gradual transfer of responsibilities. This report critiques the assessment, arguing it normalises and plans for the agency’s collapse despite its vital role protecting Palestinian refugees.
