Detailed description of project Back

In addition to the previous MEDA envelope of € 4 million, the EC decided to set aside in 2004 a further € 20 million in order to provide Palestinian refugees in Lebanon, Jordan and Syria means to overcome significant deficits in living conditions, by providing funds for basic social services such as education, health, and shelter rehabilitation through the UNRWA’s field offices. The objective of the assignment is to formulate a project proposal to this end with € 15 million in Lebanon, and € 2.5 million for both Syria and Jordan; more specifically:

• To enable UNRWA’s services in Lebanon, Jordan and Syria to prepare a comprehensive and consolidated project matching the needs of the Palestinian refugees;
