Infrastructure and Camp Improvement

UNRWA establishes its Infrastructure and Camp Improvement Programme to address deteriorating living conditions in the Palestine refugee camps. The programme focuses on improving the physical and social environment of the camps through a community-driven planning approach that includes refugees in the planning and design process. Successful pilot projects are later implemented in Neirab camp, in Syria, where UNRWA upgrades sub-standard housing in accordance with resident needs, and in Lebanon, where a community-driven planning approach is taken to the reconstruction of Nahr el-Bared camp.
