  • Summary

  • In this episode of Boundless Insights, Aviva Klompas and Dr. Michael Oren are talking about UNRWA, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees.

    Established in 1949, UNRWA has long been the subject of controversy. In October, Israel’s Knesset passed two laws restricting UNRWA’s operations. We’re talking about the implications of these laws for humanitarian aid and security in the region.

    Key Topics Covered:
    -UNRWA’s origins and how it differs from the UN’s other refugee agency, UNHCR.
    -We break down the criticisms of UNRWA and how its policies impact the prospects for peace
    -Possible paths forward, including reforming, limiting, or even disbanding UNRWA.
