OCHA Contribution to Humanitar-ian Fund oPt 2021 - 2023 (Phase 6)
The Humanitarian Fund (HF) in oPt is a flexible, needs-based and principled mechanism driven by field-level and evidence-based decisions. The HF is a pooled mechanism lead by the UN Humanitarian Coordinator through OCHA and focuses on lifesaving and emergency activities. Since 2007, the HF received regular support from various donors, including Switzerland, which renews its funding in line with its commitments to improve the effectiveness of humanitarian aid globally and in the oPt.

Contexte |
The humanitarian situation in the oPt continues deteriorating and being characterized by a protracted protection crisis. This is driven by the direct consequences of the prolonged Israeli military occupation, of the ongoing intra-Palestinian divide since 2007, the closure of the Gaza Strip and more recently the effects of COVID-19 pandemic. Due to the stalled political process, 2.45 M civilians are in need of humanitarian assistance and protection (or one every two Palestinians in oPt). To date, the main vehicle for operational humanitarian coordination in the oPt has been the UN-led Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP) which brings together UN agencies, national and international NGOs organised in sectorial clusters. The HF is a UN-coordinated country-based pooled fund (CBPF) that aims at harmonizing humanitarian coordination and the effectiveness of the cluster system at country level. |
Objectifs | To support the delivery of strategic and lifesaving humanitarian response identified under the Country’s Humanitarian Response Plan while retaining the flexibility to allocate funds to unforeseen events or special requirements. |
Groupes cibles | Direct beneficiaries: Vulnerable population in Gaza, West Bank including East Jerusalem |
