During October 2024, the occupied Palestinian territory Humanitarian Fund (oPt HF) managed a total of 90 ongoing projects, totaling U$79.6 M million. These projects aimed to address urgent needs in the Gaza Strip (91 per cent) and the West Bank (9 per cent). The projects were strategically focused on Education, Food Security, Health, Protection, Emergency Shelter & Non-Food Items (NFI), Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH), Coordination and Support Services, Multi-Purpose Cash Assistance and Nutrition.
Of these projects, 49 projects are being implemented by international non-governmental organizations (INGOs), 29 by national NGOs and 12 by UN agencies. Notably, 32 out of the 61 projects implemented by INGOs or the UN are being implemented in collaboration with national NGOs.
The oPt HF is currently finalizing its critical and time-sensitive Standard Allocation, amounting to US$30 million, to address the urgent needs outlined in the oPt Flash Appeal 2024. This allocation focuses on immediate humanitarian relief in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, aiming to rapidly scale up the humanitarian response to meet the urgent needs of affected populations. The goal is to ensure that assistance reaches the most vulnerable communities efficiently and effectively. Projects approved under this allocation will be included in upcoming monthly updates.
