Chairman of the Board

We faced many challenges at the beginning, from limited resources to lack of institutional support, but we held on to the values of cooperation and integration, relied on our members’ capacities, invested in local expertise, and made use of available unconditional support without compromising our independence or institutional identity.

War Damages

Rafah is among the areas most affected by the war, particularly in:

Agricultural Lands

A large part of the farmland in Rafah has become inaccessible or unusable due to bombing and destruction. Parts of the crops were destroyed, damaged, or left uncultivated due to insecurity, lack of labor, or destroyed infrastructure.

Wells and Irrigation Systems

Agricultural wells and related water infrastructure (pumps, distribution, drip irrigation, etc.) were heavily damaged due to airstrikes, landmines, and power cuts affecting water pumping.

Food Security and Livelihoods

Due to crop and infrastructure destruction and restricted land access, local food production has become very weak, increasing reliance on aid. Food crises have intensified, prices have risen, and the agricultural community faces loss of income and jobs.
