The purpose of this assessment was to understand the state of urban livelihoods for Palestinians and to determine whether there is a gap between services provided and services needed by vulnerable urban dwellers. Through focus group discussions with beneficiaries of Catholic Relief Services (CRS) living in Nablus and desk research of major studies and current interventions in the West Bank and Gaza, the assessment sought to (1) understand strategies that support urban livelihoods, (2) identify the challenges to livelihoods that urban dwellers face and (3) develop potential interventions that will best support beneficiaries in achieving sustainable and dignified lives.
