Grant Description

On March 1, 2017, the Government of China granted the United Nation Children's Fund (UNICEF) USD$1,000,000 to provide assistance for health consequences of conflict-affected displaced Syrians and refugees in Lebanon.

The aid was intended to respond to civil unrest in Syria and contributed to the 2017 Syria regional refugee and resilience plan (3RP)(UN project code SRRP-17/MS/109728). 3RP requested USD$5.58bn for the implementation of its plan, but only USD$3.04bn was raised by member states. This project will assist about 86,000 children affected by the conflict.

The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (UNOCHA) reported that China's contribution has been paid. This project is captured by UNOCHA flow #159650.
