dc.descriptionThe conflict in Gaza has severely constrained access to food, health services, and water and sanitation infrastructure and created severe risks for malnutrition, particularly among women and children. This paper synthesizes evidence from post-conflict and recovery settings to inform nutrition programming during recovery periods in Gaza. Based on a desk review of published and grey literature, the paper examines how emergency nutrition services can be adapted for recovery periods and integrated into health and other systems and identifies resilience and recovery interventions that may support improved nutrition outcomes. Evidence from post-conflict settings suggests that recovery phases often require continued humanitarian support alongside gradual system strengthening. For Gaza, the findings suggest prioritizing existing decentralized and outreach delivery models while institutional capacity is rebuilt, continuing core emergency interventions with appropriate adaptations, strengthening nutrition information systems, and promoting multisectoral action across health, food systems, social protection, Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH), and education to support the gradual transition from emergency response toward more sustainable nutrition service delivery during recovery.
