The continuing humanitarian and protection crises impacting the Palestinian context continue to create barriers to the full, equal and meaningful participation of all. Within this context, ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳Palestine commissioned this study to assess gender dynamics and power relations in ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳Palestine beneficiary households and propose recommendations to improve the gender transformative potential of ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳programming. Carried out in line with the recently released ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳Gender Policy (2022¨C2026), this report highlights how gender-transformative humanitarian programming can be leveraged to effectively deliver sustainable results across the humanitarian development nexus.

Co-funded by UN Women Palestine this report has taken a mixed-methods approach combining quantitative methods (616 interviewees at 308 ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳beneficiary households), qualitative methods (13 focus group discussions), 20 key informant interviews, 6 semi-structured interviews and a literature review to establish a comprehensive view of prevailing gender dynamics and power relations in ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳beneficiary households in both the West Bank and Gaza Strip.
