While advocating for peace, the EU works with international partners to ensure delivery of aid, and help build a viable, democratic, and unified future Palestinian State in peace alongside the State of Israel. This conference has produced an action-oriented roadmap for peace, grounded in international law to bring together global actors to coordinate post-war reconstruction in Gaza, support Palestinian institutional reform, advance the release of hostages and demilitarisation.
