Voices of Strength: Contributions of Palestinian Women-Led Organizations to the Humanitarian Response in the Occupied Palestinian Territory

  • UN Women

Summary

In March 2024, UN Women conducted a rapid assessment study to evaluate the impact of the war on Gaza on 25 women-led organizations operating in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. The 25 organizations surveyed, of which 18 are headquartered or have a presence in Gaza, have a strong network of support personnel, totalling more than 1,500 people, with a significant level of engagement and community involvement. Understanding their operational capacity is key for the international community to support an effective and timely response in Gaza.
