Across the West Bank, prolonged disruptions in public hospital services and limited surgical capacity have resulted in growing waiting lists for pediatric surgeries. Many children requiring specialized procedures must wait months before receiving care.
These delays can significantly affect children’s health outcomes. Untreated congenital and urological conditions may worsen over time, increasing the risk of complications, long-term disability, and avoidable suffering for children and their families.
Target Beneficiaries
The initiative focused on children across the West Bank requiring specialized surgical procedures, particularly those with congenital and urological conditions who had been placed on extended waiting lists within the public health system.
Priority was given to cases that were from low-income families and required daycare surgical intervention to prevent deterioration of health conditions and ensure improved long-term outcomes.
Service Delivery Impact (2025)
The project significantly improved access to pediatric surgical care for children across the West Bank.
