Beirut Explosion
Working to support refugees
Syrian refugees now make up a quarter of Lebanon’s population. As the number of refugees continues to rise, essential services such as water, housing, health, child protection and education are coming under huge pressure. Competition for jobs is high, and poverty is widespread among both refugees and Lebanese host communities.
Providing food parcels
We’re working to support refugees as well as vulnerable Lebanese families. In addition to providing food parcels and cash assistance to newly arrived refugees, we're training and supporting women to develop their own small businesses. We're also bringing Lebanese and Syrian people together to work on paid community infrastructure projects.
