Support to Strategic UNRWA Interventions
SDC support to UNRWA (United Nations Relief and Works Agency for the Palestine Refugees in the Near East) will enable the Agency to further implement strategic interventions in support of the 2016-21 UNRWA Medium-Term-Strategy. These interventions will also strengthen the Swiss role in the Agency’s governing structure and support the leadership of its Commissioner-General. The strategic interventions will build on SDC’s comparative advantages and expertise and strengthen SDC’s role as a development-oriented donor.
