A Call to Join Forces: Coordination and complementarity of services for an efficient and cost-effective emergency response in Lebanon In the face of escalating needs in Lebanon due to the regional armed conflict, ABAAD is reaching out to actors currently working on the ground, particularly those operating in or around collective shelters, to ensure that services are complementary, resources are used efficiently, and conflict-affected communities receive timely and effective support.

Lebanon is facing the direct consequences of a regional armed conflict that escalated sharply on February 28, 2026. As the conflict spread, strikes on Lebanon resumed and intensified, triggering mass displacement across the country. Civilian casualties are rising, social safety nets are breaking down, and communities are being uprooted in a country where nearly half the population was already living in poverty before this escalation began. ABAAD is launching this emergency appeal to mobilize the resources required to sustain and scale life-saving GBV prevention and response services, ensuring...

يواجه لبنان تصعيدًا خطيرًا في النزاع الإقليمي منذ 28 شباط 2026، ما أدى إلى تجدّد الضربات واتّساع موجات النزوح وارتفاع أعداد الضحايا، في ظل أوضاع اقتصادية ومعيشيّة هشّة. وفي ظل الاكتظاظ وتراجع الموارد، تتزايد مخاطر العنف القائم على قسمة الأدوار الاجتماعية، فيما تتقلص خدمات الحماية، ما يترك العديد من الناجيات والناجين من دون دعم كافٍ. لذلك، تُطلق أبعاد خطة استجابة طارئة لضمان استمرار وتوسيع خدمات الوقاية والاستجابة، بما يضمن وصول الأسر المتضررة، وخصوصًا النساء والفتيات والفئات الأكثر عرضة للمخاطر، إلى خدمات حماية ودعم آمنة وسريعة ومنقذة للحياة

While women’s issues and rights have been at the forefront of public and civil society debate, academic, and activist publications, women’s inequalities and the discrimination women face in Lebanon have been notably undermined, whether as citizens, refugees, or migrants. However, if the publicising of the “issue of women in Lebanon” has prompted the production of more “gender-related” information and knowledge, it has oftentimes adopted the rhetoric of denunciation and victimisation. Hence, there is a scarcity of in-depth and sectoral studies on the logics of exclusion and discrimination in...

Arab States and UN Human Rights Mechanisms by Fateh Azzam
The revolts that have rocked the Arab region in 2011 have focused on demands for dignity, social and economic justice, and political freedoms.

The revolts were a wake-up call to all those concerned with politics and development in the region, that development can no longer be...
