UNRWA launches new Hebrew website

 

The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) today announced the launch of a new Hebrew-language website. The new site marks a watershed for the Agency, which is seeking to extend its outreach and advocacy efforts to Israeli audiences.  

 

The groundbreaking website, made possible through funding from the Dutch government, contains a wide range of resources designed to inform the Hebrew-speaking public about the reality of life for Palestine refugees.

 

 Visitors to the new site will find a wealth of information on the Agency and its history, from exclusive archive and recent photographs, to videoclips, personal stories, and details of conditions in the camps where UNRWA operates.

 

The new site can be accessed at www.unrwa.org/hebrew.php.
