Contexte As a consequence of the increased armed conflict, more than 800’000 people have been internally displaced (IDPs), according to data of International Organization for Migration (IOM). Almost 200’000 of them are registered in over 1’000 collective shelters. Schools and universities have been closed bringing formal public education to a halt. Makeshift tent-like accommodations are spread in parks and along roads in countless locations all over Lebanon.

The people that remained in their regions of origin, despite the frequent air strikes, need basic services that the LRC with the support of ICRC can best deliver.
