DFID funds the two main providers of health and education services for children in the Occupied Palestinian Territories; the Palestinian Authority and the UN Relief and Works Agency. In response to the trauma suffered by children following the summer’s Gaza conflict we are also funding a range of health and psychosocial support initiatives for children in Gaza.
