Recommendation 16
16
Acknowledged
Paragraph: 59
Require all international partners to recognise and plan for long-term support for Gaza's IDPs.
Recommendation
The internally displaced people (IDPs) in Gaza will not be able to go home when the fighting ends. Most do not have a home or livelihood to go to and children will have missed months of education. This means that that the whole population will likely be dependent on aid and living in temporary shelters for a long time. All international partners must recognise this and build this in to longer-term plans.
Government Response Summary
The government states that they continue to coordinate with international partners on plans for a sustained ceasefire and support for reconstruction of Gaza.
