Palestine
Palestine is facing a protracted crisis due to prolonged occupation and recurrent escalations of armed hostilities. 40% of the population are in need of humanitarian assistance, including more than 900,000 children. Children suffer from various protection issues, including conflict-related violence, child marriage, gender-based and domestic violence. Terre des hommes (Tdh) and its partners support vulnerable children and families through strengthening protection and access to justice systems, providing mental health and psycho-social support, as well as education and humanitarian assistance.
