The International Day for the Eradication of Poverty

17 October 2022

To mark the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty, UNRWA has released its “Crisis Monitoring Reports on the Socio-Economic Situation of Palestine Refugees”. The reports cover The Gaza Strip and Lebanon. The findings reveal that nearly every Palestine refugee in Lebanon lives in poverty. In the Gaza Strip, four in every five refugees are poor. The Director of the UNRWA Department of Relief and Social Service, Dorothée Klaus, explains the main implications.
