Summary/Abstract: This study analyzed the administrative risks and challenges facing logistics operations and coordination at shelter centers in the Gaza Strip. The study sample consisted of 18 participants from various fields related to logistics supply. Using a descriptive-analytical approach, the responses were analyzed based on frequency distributions and response consistency. The findings revealed significant logistical risks, primarily due to inaccurate data, the lack of pre-prepared plans, and a shortage of trained staff. The results also showed a disparity in coordination roles, with UN agencies leading at 60%, the government exceeding 30%, and NGOs accounting for less than 10%, alongside weak institutional synergy between local and international entities. The study recommends developing risk-based administrative plans, establishing centralized joint operations rooms, and enhancing human and technical capacities. Furthermore, It emphasizes strengthening cooperation among governmental and international entities through comprehensive strategies tailored to the Gaza Strip’s unique context as a conflict zone.
