Civil organizations called for the complete inclusion of the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in Gaza's reconstruction process, according to Shehab Wire. The groups stressed that UNRWA's institutional capacity, experience in refugee affairs, and existing infrastructure position it as a critical partner in managing aid distribution and coordinating rebuilding efforts across the territory.
The appeal underscores mounting questions about how reconstruction will be structured and managed as Gaza confronts extensive damage to housing, hospitals, schools, and water systems. Civil society groups argue that excluding or marginalizing UNRWA from planning and implementation could fragment response efforts and impede the speed and scope of recovery operations across the devastated region.
