UNFPA is the lead UN agency for delivering a world where every pregnancy is wanted, every childbirth is safe and every young person's potential is fulfilled. UNFPA will be implementing its 7th Country Programme 2023-2025 in Palestine which will continue to respond to the humanitarian needs of the population, bridge humanitarian and development programming and include a more sustainable response for improved resilience. The vision and focus of the Country Programme 2023-2025 are to urgently accelerate the reduction of stagnated unmet needs for family planning and increasingly higher rates of gender-based violence and child marriage, whilst simultaneously returning to and sustaining earlier gains on maternal mortality.
