Lebanon
In 1943, Lebanon created an agreement that allocated political positions based on religion, culminating in 1975 in a 15-year civil war. Today, Lebanon hosts a reborn democracy struggling with religious and ethnic divides. We address conflicts arising within Lebanon’s diverse society, tensions resulting from the increasing influx of Syrian refugees, security sector reform, and women’s socio-economic empowerment.

Together, we can provide life-saving aid to the people of Lebanon, helping them carry the heavy load of displacement and resulting trauma. Join us in making a difference. Donate today.
