Story of Balata camp: the largest in the West Bank

Balata is the largest Palestinian refugee camp in the West Bank, established in 1950 on 252 dunams inside Nablus, with residents from many different villages.

Balata camp was set up in 1950 inside the municipal boundaries of Nablus. It has three UNRWA-supported schools, a health centre, and a dense urban fabric that keeps the memory of the villages its families came from.
