State of Palestine 2020

Reproductive health care services in Palestine are affected by cyclical humanitarian crises that cause a range of challenges, from duplication of services to shortage of equipment and supplies and restricted mobility. UNFPA began its operations in 1986. Today it focuses equally on two objectives: the first, for the longer term, is to support health institutions in providing high-quality, comprehensive and rights-based services, including those targeting youth; the second entails responding to humanitarian needs, particularly among vulnerable communities in Gaza and some vulnerable localities in the West Bank.

Sustainable Development Goals:
