The project “Strengthening the influence of Palestinian refugees on their living conditions in the MENA region (PART II)” was commissioned by the German Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) in December 2021 to improve the capability of Palestinian refugees to influence their living conditions. The project is active in the Palestinian Territories, Jordan and Lebanon and its main political partner is the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA). It also works in close cooperation with host government institutions as well as local NGOs and CBOs
The Lebanese Palestinian Dialogue Committee (LPDC) is an inter-ministerial committee directly linked to and mandated by the Lebanese Presidency of the Council of Ministers to deal with Palestinian refugees’ affairs in Lebanon. The committee is currently serving as a focal point to address the file between the Palestinian refugees and local and international stakeholders, so as to provide policy recommendations to the Government of Lebanon based on the national interests of the Lebanese people and the rights of Palestinian refugees to live in dignity and respect, until a durable and lasting solution is found.
LPDC, in its position as a mediator between the Government of Lebanon and the Palestinian refugees’ community in Lebanon, aims at communicating with the latter and informing them through interactive social media posts and informative web content about news with regard to LPDC’s workstream on improving the community’s living conditions and situation in Lebanon.
LPDC is looking to strengthen its outreach to the Palestinian community, being focalized to address the Palestinian file, thus, working through touch-base and reach-out efforts to the community, particularly with youth groups.
For this purpose, and in light of the sensitivity of the context, LPDC revitalized its website, and is actively present on social media channels to circumvent fake news, clarify misconceptions, and spread news in an authentic voice.
In this context, the communication specialist company’s services are requested to assist LPDC with its communication strategy implementation and day-to-day visibility work and enhance the reach of LPDC’s news supplement “Jousour”, aiming at improving the relations between the two communities through evidence-based journalism.
