What is it about?
It discusses if does the international aid transform young Palestinian refugees’ attitudes in terms of the right of return? Young Palestinian refugees support the right of return and can be anticipated to continue doing so, largely because and so long as the Palestine/Israel conflict remains alive.

Why is it important?
It important as it is argued that foreign aid supporting peacebuilding activities does not transform young refugees’ attitudes in terms of the right of return, nor could it so long as the movement for Palestinian self-determination has not resulted in statehood.
