The Long Journey Foreword by UNRWA Commissioner-General Pierre Krähenbühl This book is a photographic anatomy of the long journey of Palestine refugees – the epic voyage that began in 1948 with their catastrophic displacement, the Nakba, and led to a point more than six decades later where they are a scattered people, living under occupation and blockade, further displaced by conflict, marginalized by national legislations, deprived of rights and fervently longing for a resolution to their exile and dispossession. But their unfolding narrative – as this volume so beautifully illustrates – has also shown the extraordinary accomplishments by Palestinians for Palestinians; past milestones of achievement and success, towards a horizon of validation and hope, however distant that may seem today. UNRWA, the UN Agency created by the General Assembly to bring human development and emergency assistance to this community, has been with the Palestinians every step of the way. UNRWA photographers have chronicled the Palestine refugee experience since the arrival in the Middle East of the very first UNRWA workers in 1950. At crucial junctures – from the establishment of the refugee camps in the 1950s, to the 1967 hostilities and the Lebanese civil conflict, the intifadas in the occupied Palestinian territory and the recent hostilities in Gaza and Syria – UNRWA has been there to act and tell the human story. Ultimately, this is a story about the inherent dignity, indomitability of the human spirit, and the long search for justice that lie at the heart of the Palestinian identity. The images are drawn from the magnificent and extensive UNRWA archive, which consists of more than 430,000 negatives, 10,000 prints, 60,000 slides, 75 films and 730 videocassettes. In 2009, the archive was inscribed in the UNESCO Memory of the World Register, recognizing its historical value. It is currently being digitized in order to preserve Palestinian heritage and memory and to make this extraordinary record of Palestine refugees’ experience available to a wide audience. I am proud that we are marking our 65th anniversary with the publication of this volume, which takes the reader to the core of the Palestine refugee experience and the raison d’etre of UNRWA: bringing human development to some of the most marginalized communities in the Middle East. Most importantly, it is a reminder that this is a story about people. Their journey may have been long, and the denial of dignity massive, but theirs is a narrative based on the experience of individuals. Each has played their own role in shaping the destiny of an entire people; looking forward, each will continue to play a role. UNRWA will be with them, upholding their rights and defending their dignity as they continue their journey towards their due destination – a just and lasting resolution to their plight.

١٩٤٨ ١٩٦٦

From April to August 1948, more than 700,000 Palestinians are displaced as a result of the Arab-Israeli War. On 8 December 1949, UNRWA is created by UN General Assembly resolution 302 (IV), with the mandate to provide direct relief and works programmes to Palestine refugees until a just and durable resolution to the conflict is reached. UNRWA begins operations on 1 May 1950. An early priority is mass ration distributions, which include basic items such as flour, rice, cheese and soap. As contributions allow, clothing, shoes, bedding and domestic items are added. By 1955, UNRWA begins gradually improving living conditions by replacing tents in refugee camps with pre-fabricated shelters or cinderblock dwellings. UNRWA pioneers the use of ‘Najjar salts,’ a life-saving oral re-hydration formula for the treatment of diarrhoeic infants, in 1957. In later years, the treatment is adopted and used extensively around the world by UNICEF. UNRWA schools achieve gender parity in the 1960s, after girls made up only 26 per cent of students in 1951, and have maintained it ever since. The first institution in the Middle East to offer teacher training and vocational courses to refugee women, the Ramallah Women’s Training Centre, is opened in 1962. By 1966, education and skills training, rather than humanitarian relief, becomes UNRWA’s main programme.

Hundreds of thousands of people, including around 120,000 Palestine refugees, are displaced by the June 1967 hostilities, fleeing to Jordan and neighbouring countries. UNRWA provides emergency aid and relief. In the aftermath of the hostilities and the Israeli occupation of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, UNRWA establishes ten camps to accommodate the wave of displaced persons.

As a result of Black September, a conflict between the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and the Jordanian armed forces that breaks out in September 1970, thousands of Palestine refugees are expelled from Jordan, and the leadership of the PLO moves from Jordan to Lebanon.

In 1974, Israeli air raids in Lebanon destroy the Nabatiyeh refugee camp, along with three other camps. In Nabatiyeh alone, 80 per cent of UNRWA concrete-block shelters, home to more than 3,000 refugees, are hit. The Agency immediately begins providing blankets and rations for the refugees, and initiates an emergency feeding programme and a mobile medical unit.

Israeli military operations in southern Lebanon displace some 67,000 Palestine refugees in 1978. UNRWA provides emergency aid to those affected. That same year, UNRWA establishes its special hardship case programme to distribute food to the neediest refugee families, concentrating its services on the poorest of the poor. By 1980, the total population of Palestine refugees surpasses 2 million.

١٩٨٧ ١٩٩٥

On 9 December 1987, the first intifada, an uprising against the Israeli occupation of Gaza and the West Bank, begins. UNRWA establishes an emergency fund to coordinate its response to the severe reprisals, and in 1990, merges this with a similar fund for Lebanon, operating since 1982, to form the Extraordinary Measures for Lebanon and the Occupied Territories (EMLOT). In 1991, UNRWA establishes what will later become its Microfinance Department, which provides small loans to Palestine refugees – including women and young people – to help them generate income and opportunities for themselves. On 30 October 1991, the Madrid Conference initiates what will later become known as the Middle East Peace Process. The Declaration of Principles on Interim Self-Government Arrangements (also known as Oslo I) is officially signed at a public ceremony on 13 September 1993 in Washington, DC. In the same year, UNRWA, moving its headquarters to Gaza City, begins readying its ‘Peace Implementation Plan’, preparing to gradually hand over its responsibilities in the oPt to the Palestinian Authority. On 1 July 1994, PLO chairman Yasser Arafat arrives in Gaza, marking the beginning of the enactment of the Declaration of Principles agreed at the Oslo Peace Accords signed in Washington in 1993. In 1995, Olso II is signed in Taba, Egypt, and Israel withdraws from Jericho and Gaza.

In September 2000, the second intifada begins. UNRWA launches an extensive programme of emergency assistance for refugees affected by the armed conflict, the closures and the deteriorating economic situation. Five mobile health teams begin operating in the West Bank in order to facilitate continued access to UNRWA’s health services in those areas affected by closures, checkpoints and – later on – the Barrier.

In 2001, UNRWA establishes a unique programme of psychological counselling and support to address the challenges faced by Palestine refugees in the oPt. In 2002, the community mental health programme (CMHP) is established in Gaza to empower vulnerable refugees, especially children, impacted by the blockade, violence and poverty, and UNRWA schools integrate human rights into the curriculum as part of the Agency’s effort to promote non-violence, healthy communication skills, tolerance and conflict resolution among Palestine refugee children.

In 2002, Israel begins construction of the West Bank Barrier, a multilayer fence system along and within the West Bank. The Barrier limits the access of thousands of Palestinians to livelihoods and essential services, while separating many families from their agricultural land and forcing them to apply for difficult-to-obtain permits. Around 7,500 Palestinians who reside in the ‘Seam Zone’, the areas between the 1949 Armistice Line (Green Line) and the Barrier, require special permits to continue living in their own homes; another 23,000 will be isolated if the Barrier is completed as planned. In 2005, UNRWA establishes the infrastructure and camp improvement programme to address the deteriorating living conditions of Palestine refugees in camps. Israel unilaterally disengages from the Gaza Strip in August 2005.

Following the short-lived establishment of a government of national unity, Hamas established de facto control over the Gaza Strip in mid-June 2007. In May 2007, fighting breaks out in Nahr el-Bared, a Palestine refugee camp near Tripoli, between the Lebanese Armed Forces and Fatah al-Islam, a militant organization. Much of the camp is destroyed. UNRWA begins reconstruction work in 2009; the first refugees begin returning in 2010. In June 2007, Israel imposes a land blockade on the Gaza Strip, which has major economic and social consequences. That same year UNRWA, initiates the annual Gaza Summer Games, in which around 250,000 children participate each year until 2011, breaking several Guinness World Records. On 27 December 2008, Israel launches a large-scale military operation in Gaza, which lasts for 22 days and kills 1,387 Palestinians – 320 of them children – including 773 not taking part in the hostilities. In 2009 Israel imposes a naval blockade on the Gaza Strip. By 2010, broad unemployment in Gaza reaches 45.2 per cent, one of the highest rates in the world. By 2013, the years of conflict and closure have left 80 per cent of Gaza’s population dependent on international assistance, including more than 70 per cent of residents who are Palestine refugees. Popular demonstrations in March 2011 spark a long-running, violent conflict in Syria, which affects the country’s more than half a million registered Palestine refugees; by 2013, the vast majority are displaced, both within Syria and to neighbouring countries. UNRWA continues to provide regular and emergency services to the Palestine refugee community, and provides Palestine refugees from Syria, including those who seeking safety in Lebanon, Jordan and Gaza, with shelter, accommodation, cash assistance, food and emergency care. Eight days of violence in November 2012 witness relentless Israeli shelling of Gaza, during which some 900 Palestinians are injured and over 170 killed and rocket fire from Gaza on civilian populations in Israel. In June 2013, UNRWA appoints Mohammed Assaf – a Palestine refugee from the Gaza Strip and the winner of ‘Arab Idol’ – as the first UNRWA Regional Youth Ambassador for Palestine Refugees.

The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (“UNRWA”) is an autonomous subsidiary organ of the United Nations, established by General Assembly resolution 302 (IV) of 8 December 1949. Its mission is to help Palestine refugees in Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, West Bank and the Gaza Strip to achieve their full potential in human development. The Agency began operations on 1 May 1950, responding to the needs of more than 700,000 Palestine refugees; in 2014, some 5 million Palestine refugees are eligible for UNRWA services, which encompass education, health care, relief and social services, camp infrastructure and improvement, microfinance and emergency assistance.

UNRWA is unique in terms of its longstanding commitment to one group of refugees. It has contributed to the welfare and human development of four generations of Palestine refugees, defined as “persons whose normal place of residence was Palestine during the period 1 June 1946 to 15 May 1948, and who lost both home and means of livelihood as a result of the 1948 conflict, and their descendants.” In the absence of a solution to the Palestine refugee problem, the General Assembly has repeatedly renewed the UNRWA mandate, most recently extending it until 30 June 2017.
