UN and NGO program faced funding gap of
staggering USD 3.47 billion, that means 3RP
plan calls for USD 4.55 billion for the
programs, out of which only $1.06 billion-23%
had been received. This meant 1.6 million
refugee have had their food assistance reduced
this year, 750000 children are not attending
school and lifesaving health services are
becoming too expensive for many including
70000 pregnant women at risk of unsafe
deliveries

UN is failing to eliminate the gap
between regional and global
alliances-for example, Iran, Russian,
China lining up behind President
BSHAR AL-Assad, while the US,
Saudi Arabia and other gulf states are
with anti government alliance. This
has led to stagnation at the UN, with
permanent security council members
and china previously blocking US
backed resolution on Syria.

It doesn’t feel like the UN has scaled
up its cross border assistance as much
as it could have done, while the
security council put the mandate, it
doesn’t seem that within the
operational agencies there were
strong enough marching orders given
to really push on the cross border

therefore they lack a coordinated plan and plan for
communicating the kind of aid to deliver to the
recipient refugee while using their own resources.
