More than a decade after the United Nations’ adoption of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women, which is adopted by many countries including Lebanon, these countries returned in 2015 to commit themselves to achieve gender equality and t
This report aims to provide a contextual understanding of migration governance in the Lebanese context, as well as its implications for refugees and migrants.
UNFPA on behalf of UNDP and UN Women organized a national workshop on gender-related laws, policies and practices in Lebanon, which was held in Beirut on the 7th and 8th of August, 2018.
“الجهل بالقانون لا يُنهض عُذراً لأحد”
يشير هذا المبدأ الجوهري في الممارسة المواطنية إلى ضرورة توعية المواطنين على قوانينهم وأهميتها وسبل التمتع بما توفره من حماية لهم ولحقوقهم. والمعرفة بالقانون تستدعي أيضا معرفة بالنظام المخوّل بتطبيقه وتنفيذه.
التوعية القانونية عملية معقدة وواسعة وتتطلب تفاعل العديد من المؤسسات الوطنية كالمدرسة والجامعة ووسائل الإعلام ومنظمات المجتمع المدني… ولا نكشف سرّاً إذ نقول إن هذه التوعية لا تمارَس إلا بحدّها الأدنى في بلادنا، في حين يُمارس التعسف في تطبيق القانون، بل ويُنتهك القانون طولاً وعرضاً، بدون ضابط أو قيد.
يحاول هذا الكتاب أن يساهم في عملية التوعية هذه،...

Lebanon has had an ambiguous approach to the more than one million Syrians seeking protection in the country since 2011. The country is neither party to the 1951 Convention relating to the Status of Refugees, nor does it have any national legislation dealing with refugees.
In Lebanon, the question of hosting and ensuring protection for Syrian refugees in light of the government stance against the erection of camps has created many deliberations concerning different proposed and implemented shelter options and solutions. UN-Habitat, in partnership with the American University of Beirut’s (AUB) Issam Fares Institute for Public Policy and International Affairs (IFI), initiated a research study in July 2014 to address solutions for hosting and ensuring protection for refugees specifically on the subject of erecting camps to address the Syrian crisis. The study...
In May 2015, the Lebanese authorities instructed UNHCR to temporarily suspend registration of Syrian refugees, including individuals already in the country and new arrivals.
The Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) is pleased to share with you the report:
“Responding to the Impact of the Syrian Crisis on Lebanon: Recovery Framework for Wadi Khaled and Akroum, Akkar”, March 2014.
SDC facilitated a process to shed light on the impact of the Syria crisis at the national level but also on the local level. The formulation of a recovery framework for Wadi Khaled and Akroum is a process that can be replicated for other affected regions of Lebanon.
The findings and recommendations are based on consultations (between October 2013 and January 2014) with...
This report is this first of a three-part series focusing on the current status and lessons learned relating to transitional justice and policing initiatives in opposition-controlled Syria. • Part I focuses on the effects of the departure of judicial and security elements of the Syrian state has had on conditions on the ground currently and on the nascent justice institutions that have emerged in this void (including levels of institutionalisation, Islamic law, and the legal systems currently being debated and trialed in some areas). • Part II examines the variety of institutions and...
This paper examines the situation of impunity in Lebanon that has persisted since the 1975–1990 war. It highlights the price of the Lebanese authorities’ failure to address the legacy of past conflict.
This study recommends a holistic approach to crafting a comprehensive and victim-centered transitional justice process in Lebanon. An incremental approach to reform would be of value, given the likely challenges to pursuing accountability in the country. Programming must involve state and nonstate actors—political and community leaders, civil society, and the broader public. In addition, human...
