The $3 million, contributed by various donors to UNRWA&#8217;s General Fund, represents the first substantial funding for the Agency in Syria as a result of the launch of its Medium Term Plan. Some 30 different projects and activities will be impleme nted with the additional funds, further enhancing UNRWA&#8217;s Education, Health, Relief and Social Services for Palestine Refugees in Syria.
