Its primary mandate is to provide assistance and protection to Palestine refugees who were displaced as a result of the 1948 Arab-Israeli conflict. UNRWA provides essential services such as education, healthcare, social services, and emergency assistance to over 5 million registered Palestine refugees in Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, the West Bank, and the Gaza Strip. The agency plays a crucial role in addressing the humanitarian needs and supporting the rights of Palestine refugees in the region.
