Since March 2011 and the continuously escalating crisis in Syria, Lebanon (along with Jordan, Iraq and Turkey) has been a refuge area for Syrian families fleeing the instability and violence in their country.
This paper was produced by ANND and Christian Aid and contains five main sections: “Executive Summary: a crisis of multiple dimensions; the threat of explosive vulnerabilities and increasing insecurities”, “Vulnerability to poverty: the key challenges faced by the Arab region”
The report assesses the progress made in the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) based on new national data which was formulated after the first MDGR that was published in 2003.
The activities, presented in this brochure, are illustrative of UNDP – European Commission Humanitarian Aid Department (ECHO) funded interventions and support in restoring and preserving livelihoods in the Lebanese most damaged regions.
