Summary
The assistance provided in Gaza and the West Bank remains a critical safety net for Palestinians during a protracted protection and humanitarian crisis. In 2020, WFP was able to surpass its planned 426,000 beneficiaries, resulting in assistance to more than 431,000 people, largely through cash-based transfers (CBT). In order to address the financial and social effects of the pandemic, WFP supported the Ministry of Social Development (MoSD) in formulating an emergency response plan for those in urgent need of assistance and supporting its implementation by quickly scaling up its intervention to 84,000 new beneficiaries. 2020 also marked a shift towards more sustainable solutions in WFP’s resilience activities. WFP piloted a Climate-Resilient Agricultural scheme aiming at improving the lives of vulnerable Palestinians who currently rely on WFP food assistance. The overall aim is to enhance their livelihoods opportunities. WFP supports the Palestinian social protection system by providing complementary food assistance to food-insecure households living below the deep poverty line.
