Providing Job Opportunities and Personal Growth for Youth in Lebanon

UNICEF and Anera’s collective efforts over the years in Lebanon have pushed back against the harsh realities by working to provide a sense of structure and normalcy under very unusual situations. We have brought many thousands of kids back into classrooms. We’ve trained many young people in employability skills which improved their lives and enriched their communities. After the devastating Beirut explosion, we joined forces and mobilized volunteers to deliver relief, remove debris and renovate houses. During the Covid-19 pandemic, we jointly led a vaccine promotion campaign that achieved 89% vaccination rate among Palestinian refugees in Lebanon.

We’ve been able to deliver programs that open doors and protect the rights of tens of thousands of children and adolescents.
