Description:
The Logistics Cluster in Palestine supports humanitarian partners operating under severe insecurity and access constraints in Gaza since October 2023. Maintaining a regional approach, the Cluster team is based across Gaza, Jerusalem, Egypt and Jordan, alongside its partners throughout their supply chain aid routes. The Cluster maintains a coordination and information-sharing platform through meetings inside Gaza and at regional level, as well as providing access to common logistics services. The Cluster also works with partners to advocate for significant improvements to humanitarian access for a predictable and consistent supply chain for the delivery at scale of life-saving aid by humanitarian organisations.
