أطلقت لجنة الإنماء الوطني برنامج "نهضة" الزراعي في تموز 2020 استجابة للوضع الإقتصادي المتردي في لبنان. حددت الجمعية أن السبب الرئيسي لذلك التردي، هو الإتكال الكبير في استهلاك المنتجات الزراعية الاستراتيجية على استيراد تلك المُنتجات من الخارج. الحل المباشر يكون في التحول التدريجي للمقومات الإقتصادية الزراعية إلى نموذج إنتاجي تصاعدي وفق خطة طويلة الأمد، يتم ترشيدها بأهداف محددة في الأمن الغذائي، وتنفيذها في خطة علمية منهجية تحرص على استدامة النتائج المتوخاة، لتتكامل مع النسيج الإقتصادي للبنان. يتم مراقبة وضبط نجاح وتقدم هكذا خطة عبر قياس دوري لمكونات محددة وواضحة، استناداً لمعلوماتٍ دقيقة تكون...

This report presents findings from a survey conducted from 3-11 July, 2017 with three distinct refugee groups in Lebanon: Syrian refugees; Palestine refugees from Syria; and Palestine refugees from Lebanon.
The Lebanon Host Communities Support Project (LHSP) is a multi donor programme aimed at increasing stability and building the capacity of communities affected by the Syrian crisis to address tensions, prevent conflict and ensure peaceful co-existence.
This working paper seeks to document and analyse collaboration mechanisms between local authorities and humanitarian actors in addressing the Syrian refugee crisis in urban and peri-urban settings in Lebanon.
Since the Syrian conflict began in 2011, 11 million people have been internally displaced or have fled to neighboring states. This has put an incredible strain on the hosting societies, particularly in Lebanon,Jordan, Iraq and Turkey.
The private sector has long been a major contributor to humanitarian action. At the community level, businesses frequently use their materials and resources to aid people affected by crises. As local markets recover and supply chains are repaired, crisis-affected people are once again able to access basic goods and, in some cases, resume livelihoods. Large national, regional and multinational firms are also closely involved in supporting humanitarian objectives, whether indirectly, by resuming operations in crisis affected areas, or directly, by providing cash and in kind donations of goods or...

These observations have prompted MSF to conduct this review, to better understand how the humanitarian system is responding to acute displacement emergencies. The review is based on...
Les politiques de coopération au développement des bailleurs étatiques placent de plus en plus le secteur marchand comme un acteur clé du développement, à la fois comme un partenaire financier ou opérationnel mais aussi comme un objectif en soi. Sa croissance dans les pays du Sud, que ce soit dans le domaine productif ou de la fourniture de services, y compris pour de la délégation de services publics ou l’offre de services bancaires, est considérée comme un indicateur positif. Les gouvernements des pays membres de l’UE cherchent ainsi à maximiser son rôle comme catalyseur ou «substitut» de...
