Gaza Emergency Response 2023 The Gaza strip has been subjected to a severe airstrikes since hostilities broke out in October 2023 between Hamas and Israel. Palestinians in Gaza have faced restrictions by Israeli authorities in accessing many basic supplies, such as fuel, water, food and medication. Within 10 days, over 1.4 million Palestinians were displaced, predominantly to the South near Khan Younis. 

This project will provide rapid cash assistance, food and NFIs to displaced communities in dire need of essential supplies. CAFOD and Christian Aid will jointly provide a total of £100,000 to CFTA - a shared partner based in Khan Younis in the south of the Gaza strip and who have opened their centres to be used as shelters for people fleeing north Gaza and who have had their homes destroyed.
Support to second phase of CI emergency appeal for Gaza:  Rehabilitation phase This project is a continuation of the emergency appeal response to the escalating violence which prevailed in Gaza following the Israeli military offensive “Operation Protective Edge” (OPE). It aims to contribute to improving the health and psychosocial situation of children in Gaza strip after the war in Gaza in the summer of 2014.

OPE was the 3rd Gaza war in 6 years, it lasted 7 weeks and was the deadliest with more than 2000 Palestinians killed, among them over 500 children.  Whole neighbourhoods were reduced to rubble and a year later due to the on-going restrictions on construction materials, not a single destroyed home had been rebuilt.  Even before OPE, the UN had warned that Gaza would be 'unliveable' by 2020 due to successive conflicts and years of restrictions on development and reconstruction. OPE has caused the most acute humanitarian crisis in Gaza in the last 50 years.  Around 100,000 people are still living without adequate shelter.  Vital water and sanitation infrastructure, schools and health facilities also urgently need rebuilding.  More than 70% of the population is food insecure or vulnerable to food insecurity. 

The needs analysis conducted by Caritas Jerusalem identified the health/psychosocial field as the focus for this second phase response, which will provide:
 - health screening for 3500 children;
 - 72,000 meals for children identified as suffering from anaemia;
 - counselling sessions for 1000 children;
 - group psychosocial activities for 6000 children;
 - rehabilitation of child-friendly spaces in 10 districts.
Improved psychosocial services in Gaza Psychologists from Roehampton University (School of Human and Life Sciences) were brought in to develop a training programme to improve the skills of the Islamic Relief Psychosocial Centre staff in Gaza.  After carrying out the training in Gaza, they provided follow-up from the UK through a range of communication tools such as video conferencing and Skype.
Youth Empowerment in Gaza The Gaza strip has been subjected to a severe blockade since 2007 and exposed to several major  armed military offensives, and continues to suffer political unrest and conflict.  Its almost 2 million residents are denied free access to the remainder of the territory and the outside world.  There is a lack of basic services including electricity, clean water and health supplies.  There is high unemployment in Gaza, with youth unemployment particularly worrying, especially amongst young women.  For many young people, finding a job which pays the bills and allows the raising of a family is a distant dream.  

This project will take place at the cultural centre of CFTA, which is perhaps the only space in the south of the Gaza strip where girls can participate in making positive changes at both personal and community level., and will create a convenient sphere of engagement for talented youth.  Activities will include skills development, life skills, awareness raising on human rights as well as the provision of equipment for the "youth incubator" - a hub for supporting young entrepreneurs to create job opportunities online.
Strengthening civic peace initiatives of Palestinian youth inspired by integral ecology approach The impact of the long running occupation, compounded by the COVID-19 pandemic has left deep scars in Palestinian communities on the West Bank. The economy, especially tourism, has been greatly affected. Public life has increasingly become characterized by a lack of law and order, a decline of values, a surge in violence against women, and, given the lack of a viable peace process, a pervading sense of hopelessness and despair, particularly amongst young people. The ongoing Israeli occupation and creeping annexation as a result of the expansion of settlements and the taking over of area C in the West Bank has a great impact on many people’s livelihoods. In this context, developing integrated advocacy capacities among disadvantaged Palestinian groups has become more important.  AEI and CAFOD implemented a 3-year EU Peacebuilding Initiative funded project between 2017-2020 focussed on equipping and empowering youth to become leaders in their communities, agents for positive change despite the prevailing political realities and supported them to design and implement advocacy initiatives in their local communities.  This project will build on key elements of this including the piloting and strengthening of innovative tools for monitoring impact.  The project will explore the concept of ‘encounter’ between Christians and Muslims and between rural and urban Palestinian communities in order to overcome the imposed fragmentation that hinders local level peace.  The project will test and develop M&E tools for peacebuilding and will also look at the role of the environment in advocacy messages and how to protect Palestinian land against encroaching Israeli settlements. The project will pilot educational ‘tourism’ led by its youth participants – an innovative approach inspired by the previous EU project.
Coronavirus Prevention Awareness Campaign People in Gaza are potentially extremely vulnerable to COVID-19 due to crowded conditions, water shortages and near-collapse of healthcare systems.   Vaccine is in short supply and under 100,000 have been vaccinated in a population of over 2 million.  The only laboratory for COVID testing was hit and damaged during the recent airstrikes (May 2021).  Minimising infection rates, especially for the most vulnerable, is therefore crucial, and more effort is needed to combat misinformation and to facilitate the vaccination process. Trained health workers will therefore conduct 200 awareness workshops with distribution of hygiene kits, targeting 1,200 children aged 6-16 (as likely carriers), 800 men and 1,000 women including adults who are older or have disabilities.  Information will also be disseminated to a wider audience using social media and radio messages via CFTA’s own internet-based radio.  Most awareness-raising work fails to address issues like stigma and personal hygiene – issues which this initiative will make sure to cover.
Emergency legal aid for Palestinians This project aims to respond to the severe humanitarian needs among the Palestinian populations of the West Bank and East Jerusalem which have been exacerbated by the heightened tensions and a severe spike in instances of violence, demolitions, and military raids in the West Bank since the start of 2023.  JLAC will provide urgent pro bono legal aid and advice to individuals particularly those affected by demolition orders.    Beneficiaries include farmers and their families, women, people with disabilities, administrative detainees and their families, and families affected by house demolition and related issues.  Jerusalem Legal Aid Centre (JLAC) provides special consideration for clients on low incomes, and those who have limited or no other access to legal services, taking up over a thousand cases in a typical year.  JLAC also conducts public awareness-raising campaigns on human rights, and advocacy for increased rights both with the Palestinian Authority and international duty bearers.
Support to EAPPI Advocacy Research Officer post Recognising that EAPPI is uniquely placed to provide an international, ecumenical and impartial lens on the occupation and that its eyewitness reports and monitoring data are well-respected and used, it was agreed that an advocacy research officer (ARO) should be hired in order to increase the efficacy of advocacy efforts.  Since 2014 the ARO, based at QP&SW has provided the support needed for ecumenical partners to take advocacy forwards with their own constituents/ organisations. 

The EAPPI programme has been able to engage in increased parliamentary advocacy since the establishment of the ARO role.  Eye witness accounts and blogs serve as the basis for building case studies and reports to send monitoring information to decision makers. 

This project is to provide funds (£30,591) for the role until March 2017.  Without these funds, the ARO post will cease to exist as of the end of March 2016. Funding uncertainty will also inevitably mean that the current post holder may leave even earlier and her valuable expertise will be lost to the programme.
Ecumenical Accompaniment in Palestine and Israel The Ecumenical Accompaniment Programme in Palestine and Israel (EAPPI) was organised in response to a request by the Heads of Churches in Jerusalem (including the Latin Patriarch, the Custos of the Holy Land, and several other Catholic leaders), through the World Council of Churches, to ensure an international presence within Palestinian communities in the occupied West Bank.  Quaker Peace & Social Witness (QPSW) co-ordinates EAPPI in the UK and Ireland.   Each year a number of Ecumenical Accompaniers (EAs) from Britain and Ireland are recruited and given training in non-violence, personal safety, and how to document human rights abuses.  They then serve in Israel-Palestine for three months.  Their presence provides some protection to vulnerable communities, and while in post they do what they can to monitor and report human rights abuses, and support Palestinians and Israelis working together for peace.  A large part of their work is just to enable people to go about the daily routines of everyday life without disruption: hold-ups and lengthy delays at checkpoints apply even to patients going to hospital and teachers travelling to schools, but the intervention of an EA can often resolve the difficulty.  On their return to this country the EAs undertake speaking tours to give a first-hand account of their experiences, and to advocate a just and peaceful resolution to the Israeli/ Palestinian conflict through an end to the occupation, respect for international law, and implementation of UN resolutions.
