Between May and June 2012, DRC field teams surveyed 771 households – 432 in Tripoli and 339 in the Akkar region.

As a result of the unrest in Syria, the Akkar Region in northern Lebanon has hosted several thousand displaced Syrians since May 2011.

The current crisis in Syria has been going on for well over a year and the situation remains volatile and is in fact worsening over time.

The PDM consisted of conducting household surveys with beneficiaries who received Non-Food Items (NFIs in the form of hygiene kits) and food vouchers as part of WVL's Syrian refugee response in the Bekaa.
