lebanon: a new home

lebanon: "A new home"

Today, Lebanon has welcomed hundreds of thousands of Syrian and Iraqi refugees, and more arrive every day. The “foreign” presence in Lebanon represents at least a fourth or possibly even more of the current Lebanese population, a time bomb for a country where the political balance is already unstable. In these refugee camps, it becomes fundamental to promote the human dignity of each of person currently living in no man’s land.

AVSI acts in order to reduce the gap between official refugees assistance and the actual needs of refugees who are struggling to integrate themselves into their new home. AVSI has already supported approximately 50,000 Syrian and 34,600 Iraqi refugees.

​
Our campaign “Refugees and us: we are all on the same road” aims to help 750 families of Syrian, Iraqi and Palestinian refugees, facilitating  access to education and improving the families’ autonomy through opportunities for work.

 ABOUT LEBANON

Lebanon, officially the Lebanese Republic, is a country in Western Asia. It is bordered by Syria to the north and east and Israel to the south. In 2012, the Syrian civil war threatened to spill over in Lebanon, causing more incidents of sectarian violence and armed clashes.

​Nowadays, the impact of the Syrian crisis - including on the economy, demographics, political instability, and security - continues to deepen across Lebanon. With more than 1.3 million refugees expected by the beginning of 2015, Lebanon's exceptional hospitality will be extremely stretched.
