The formation of the Board of Peace and the significant financial pledges, particularly from the United States, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates, are expected to positively impact the construction and humanitarian aid sectors in the Gaza Strip. The initiative's potential rivalry with the United Nations could introduce uncertainty in international governance.
US President Donald Trump established the Board of Peace for the redevelopment of the Gaza Strip, following a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas. The United States pledged $10 billion, with other nations like Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates committing at least $1 billion each. India attended the inaugural meeting as an observer, represented by Namgya Khampa, though it has not formally joined. The initiative aims to bring lasting peace and reconstruction to the Gaza Strip, with estimated costs reaching $70 billion. The Board of Peace is seen as a potential rival to the United Nations, which has also contributed to humanitarian aid in Gaza. Morocco has offered police personnel for an International Stabilisation Force, and FIFA has pledged funds for soccer projects.
