Lajee Stands in Solidarity with UNWRA
The Lajee Center, in collaboration with the Badil Resource Center and the Global Palestinian Refugee and Displaced Persons Network, organized a support and solidarity event for UNRWA on Thursday in front of the UNRWA clinic in Aida Camp. The event was attended by dozens of Palestinian refugees from the camps of Aida, Azza, and Dheisheh.
The event aimed to shed light on the dangers of the Zionist-American campaign aimed at dismantling UNRWA and ending its role in Palestinian camps both within the homeland and in the diaspora. This campaign poses a threat to the rights of Palestinian refugees to education, healthcare, and social services.
Participants in the event emphasized the need to protect UNRWA as the international institution responsible for Palestinian refugees since the Nakba. They stressed that any attempts to end its role constitute a direct violation of refugee rights, foremost among them the right of return.
This event is part of a series of activities and measures organized by the Lajee Center in cooperation with local partners to strengthen popular efforts to protect UNRWA and ensure the continuation of its essential services to Palestinian refugees.
