BCG earned more than $1mn for Gaza aid barge project

Boston Consulting Group (BCG) has been embroiled in controversy over its work with a private US company attempting to deliver food aid to Gaza by sea. The consulting firm was paid over $1 million for its assistance to Fogbow, an aid delivery group led by US military veterans, on a project funded by Qatar.

The project aimed to sail humanitarian aid on barges from Cyprus to Gaza, outside the traditional UN-led system. This move raised concerns among aid groups about the introduction of commercial considerations into humanitarian efforts.

BCG’s involvement with the Maritime Humanitarian Aid Foundation (MHAF), which facilitated the project with Fogbow, included setting up an entity in Switzerland, compiling monthly reports for Qatar’s government, and providing administrative support. Despite starting as pro bono work, BCG eventually billed MHAF over $1 million for its services between March 2024 and February this year.

The consulting firm faced criticism for its association with the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), a separate project that involved modeling a postwar Gaza and relocating Palestinians. BCG terminated the GHF project in May and dismissed two US partners for disregarding approval processes.

Fogbow’s initiative to establish a maritime corridor for aid delivery to Gaza faced challenges from Israel’s restrictions on land routes. Although the project received some approvals from the Israeli government, President Joe Biden’s announcement of a US-built floating pier in Gaza overshadowed Fogbow’s plans.

Despite logistical setbacks, Fogbow managed to deliver aid to Gaza through the US pier and Israeli port of Ashdod. BCG supported MHAF in evaluating contractors and expanding its humanitarian efforts beyond Gaza.

Fogbow and MHAF emphasized their commitment to providing essential aid to Gaza and other regions in need. However, GHF faced criticism for its perceived alignment with Israeli war aims and the use of private security contractors during aid distribution.

BCG’s decision to withdraw from a $4 million contract with GHF sparked accusations of corporate cowardice. GHF claimed to have delivered millions of meals to Gaza and accused BCG of abandoning the mission under pressure from the UN.

The controversies surrounding BCG’s involvement in Gaza-related projects have raised questions about the intersection of humanitarian aid, commercial interests, and geopolitical dynamics. The consulting firm’s reputation has been tarnished by its association with conflicting initiatives in the region.
