UNRWA provides formal education to some 540,000 Palestine refugee children in Gaza, the West Bank, Jordan, Syria and Lebanon. Over the decades, 2.5 million Palestinians have graduated from UNRWA schools to contribute positively to their communities, but the educational services provided by the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) are under enormous political and financial pressure.
