Better Shelter will deliver 3,139 shelters to the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) to support safer living conditions for internally displaced people across the Gaza Strip.
1,104 of these have already been shipped and will be transferred into Gaza once the situation and conditions allow, as part of a broader UNDP project under the UN’s overall response.
In Gaza, more than 90 percent of the population, nearly two million people, have been forced to flee their homes since October 2023. Entire neighbourhoods have been reduced to rubble, with 436,000 homes damaged or destroyed. Families now seek refuge in tented camps, schools, or damaged buildings, while facing severe lack of food, clean water, medicine, and healthcare as the violence continues.
Against the backdrop of unprecedented displacement in Gaza, this collaboration marks an important step towards helping families in Gaza rebuild safety and dignity in their daily lives.
At Better Shelter, we continue to prepare and stand ready to support as many people as possible in Gaza, together with our partners, donors, and colleagues across the humanitarian community.
