ينتمي مفهوم المجتمع المدني إلى تلك المجموعة من المفاهيم التي كلما زاد حضورها في حياة الناس زاد عليهم غموضها، ما يحوّلها إلى أيقونة يحتشد الناس انتصارا لها وينبرون للدفاع عنها، خاصة في بلدان الاستبداد حيث يُحاصر المجتمع المدني ويُضَيّق عليه الخناق حتى يكاد يختنق ويتلاشى. والواقع أن لمفهوم المجتمع المدني دلالات متغيرة بتغيّر الأوضاع التي تمر بها الدولة والمجتمع. كذا هو الحال في منتقطنا حيث تختلف دلالة المجتمع المدني إبان بداية أحداث العنف اختلافا جذريا عما كانت عليه قبلها وكذلك عما آلت إليه الأوضاع اليوم. لكن يبقى وجود مجتمع مدني حر وفاعل شرطا أساسيا لتحقيق الديمقراطية المنشودة، ولا يبدو هذا...

The humanitarian aid system is growing and expanding, and so surely its capacity to meet these challenges should also be growing.
Yet despite the enormous resources, in the more complex, less high-profile and difficult contexts, MSF teams in the field have seen that humanitarian responses to displacement emergencies have not occurred in a timely and effective way. This is especially the case in conflict areas.
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...
Integrity’s research highlights that women’s networks and organisations in Syria are active across a range of service delivery sectors. In many cases these groups are either responding to gaps in services provided by other NGOs, civil society organisations (CSO), or other service delivery actors, or they are providing understanding and access to the specific needs of women and children beneficiaries that other groups cannot.
Women’s groups interviewed by Integrity are most active (62 per cent) in the education, skills training, and livelihoods sectors. These areas both help meet immediate...
The crisis in Syria continues to have a devastating impact on professors, university students, and the education sector, not only in Syria but also in the neighboring countries that are hosting so many displaced Syrians. In this report, the Institute of International Education (IIE) and its Syria Consortium for Higher Education in Crisis looks at the conditions and educational needs of Syrians university students and scholars in Lebanon. “The War Follows Them: Syrian University Students and Scholars in Lebanon,” is based on first-hand research and interviews conducted in Lebanon in March 2014...
The Syrian conflict, now in its fourth year, has taken a heavy toll on Lebanon’s society.
Among those most affected are young men and women in refugee camps and marginalized communities. Young people are increasingly confronting violence and discrimination. They are missing out on education and work opportunities. The rising number of unemployed and disenfranchised youth in Lebanon could become a security risk for both Lebanese and refugee communities.
A society’s well-being relies on its youth, who can help revitalize the economy when education, health care and job opportunities are available...

Originally released in 2008, and now fully updated, the compendium consolidates various international standards and commitments made by governments at the regional and global levels to protect civil society and ensure participation in public processes.
In addition to collating relevant portions of major UN documents, the compendium also includes commitments made by regional bodies such as the Arab...

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...
