CfW

The UNRWA Cash-for-Work (CfW) programme aims to ensure that poor refugee households are able to cover basic needs in a dignified manner through provision of short-term employment opportunities, with priority being given to the most vulnerable groups such as female-headed households, persons with disabilities and those with no alternative sources of income. CfW positions will be located throughout Gaza, including UNRWA installations and partner community-based and non-governmental organisations. By injecting cash into the economy, this intervention will contribute to the mitigation of poverty through a temporary reduction in unemployment.
