Reconfiguring Relief Mechanisms: The Syrian Refugee Crisis in Lebanon by Rabih Shibli
The past three years of turmoil and bloodshed in Syria have forced more than 6 million Syrians to flee their homes and seek refuge in perceived safer areas inside and outside Syria. According to the latest reports1 issued by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), more than 868,224 Syrian refugees have settled in Lebanon, with the majority facing severe living conditions. Due to financial and political constraints, the Lebanese government has not yet created...

This paper highlights the specificity of the refugee crisis in the unstable Lebanese landscape and calls for the reconfiguring of current relief mechanisms by enabling decentralized local authorities to lead the process. Crisis Management Teams (CMTs), part of Mohafazat councils, will be responsible of collaborating with national and international agencies, planning and monitoring relief projects. The paper also draws on the experience gained by the Community Projects and Development unit (CDPu) – American University of Beirut (AUB), and recommends engaging refugees in municipal public works...

The population shift from Syria, as a result of the Syrian Crisis, is causing enormous pressure on host communities and exacerbating instability factors.

REACH undertook an assessment of host community needs in Akkar Governorate, one of Lebanon’s most underdeveloped regions.

Having limited legal status has direct negative consequences for Syrian refugees’ access to protection and assistance during their stay in Lebanon. Limited legal status also increases the risks of abuse and exploitation. Lebanon is not a signatory to the 1951 Refugee Convention, hence the limited legal protection for refugees and asylum seekers in Lebanon, although it is bound by the customary law principle of non-refoulement and by the obligations of the human rights treaties which it has signed and which are incorporated into its Constitution. International standards under these obligations...

The entry of Syrian refugees into Lebanon and Jordan has resulted in unprecedented social and economic challenges to both countries.

Over three years after it began, the Syria crisis continues to weigh extremely heavily upon Lebanon. Around a quarter of its population is now made up of refugees, whose needs remain dire even as the resources available to address them appear to be shrinking.

As the Syrian Crisis enters its fourth year, numerous water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) needs remain to be filled among Syrian refugees living in Lebanon, who now number more than 1.1 million.

Syria's third year of civil war has caused a rapid acceleration in influx of the refugees to Lebanon with the intensification of clashes in recent months. In fall 2013 more than 2000 Syrian refugees are fleeing to Lebanon on daily basis. The mental health needs of Syrian refugees in Lebanon have not received thorough assessment. Information about the nature, the quality, and coverage of these services for the Syrian refugees is lacking. Methodology The Syrian refugee assessment for Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS) took place in August and September 2013. The assessment had two...
