Lebanon continues to confront an unprecedented financial and economic crisis facilitated by a history of violence, volatility, and social inequality that has undermined the subsistence capacity of already vulnerable populations. The country continues hosting the largest numbers of refugees per capita in the world (almost 1 in 3), estimated at 1.5 million displaced Syrians along with 31,400 Palestine refugees from Syria, 35,000 Lebanese returnees, and a pre-existing population of more than 174,422 Palestine refugees, and risks for new displacement waves are rising with a deteriorating geopolitical environment. This multi-layered crisis has devastating impacts on the social, economic and environmental capital of the country and, increasingly, on its social cohesion and stability as well.
Communities hosting large numbers of displaced populations have to face, with inadequate institutional capacities, fast-dwindling resources, and insufficient collective approach, the lingering consequences of the Syrian displacement crisis, exacerbated since 2019 by a severe economic, fiscal and governance meltdown, while pressure from climate change keeps increasing. This state-of-affairs undermines their capacity to cope with the immediate impacts of the compounded crisis – including breakdowns in essential services, rising poverty and the stiffening of inter- and intra-community tensions – and curtails their ability to overcome systemic challenges through a development approach, including, but not limited to, the protracted presence of displaced populations with no durable solutions in sight.
The Lebanon Host Community Support Project – Phase 2 (LHSP 2.0) Project builds upon the long accumulated experience and lessons learnt of implementing the LHSP since 2014. LHSP 2.0 proposes to anchor more firmly stabilization activities into an integrated local development paradigm, to work more at an area-based level in clusters and unions and to strengthen its support to municipal capacity development, in order to increase impact and sustainability of stabilization support.
At the local level, the LHSP 2.0 aims to help increase coping and sustainable development capacities in host communities and create a more enabling environment for mitigating and preventing tensions by:
The Project has four outputs:
Output 1 | Local governance for stabilization | Mechanisms and capacities built in hosting areas for generating and implementing in a conflict-sensitive and gender-transformative manner local plans that can help prevent and respond to tensions and sustainably reduce multi-dimensional vulnerabilities. |
Output 2 | Essential services & infrastructure | Physical infrastructure, including for energy supply, enhanced and more sustainable service delivery models promoted to secure affordable access to basic and social services, including energy supply, for vulnerable groups and hosting communities. |
Output 3 | Livelihoods & local economic recovery | Decent livelihoods opportunities paying living income increased for vulnerable groups, including women, youth and people with disabilities, and opportunities for low-carbon and inclusive economic recovery generated, including through the social enterprise sector. |
Output 4 | Social peace & social capital | Community-based peacebuilding initiatives, including in schools and media space, supported to help reduce tensions, prevent violence, including against women, and create an enabling environment for collective action for the public good. |
