What the grant funds

The USAID/West Bank and Gaza Mission intends to award a five-year, up to $60 million activity entitled “Improve Livelihoods and Enhance Economic Development” (ILEED). ILEED will focus on promoting resilient livelihoods in Gaza and give households the tools they need to cope with recurrent crises. The activity will build upon USAID investments and successes to date, with a primary focus on building resilience through livelihoods while maintaining the flexibility and capacity to respond to emergencies, should they arise. A secondary focus will be on adapting to climate change through livelihood development.
