The impact of the Syria crisis on Lebanon is unprecedented in the history of complex, refugee-driven emergencies. The crisis is not only challenging the country’s existing social and economic infrastructure and employment, it also brings to Lebanon a new set of disparities, cleavages and tensions that threaten to undermine Lebanon’s delicate social and political stability. Due to the crisis, Lebanon is witnessing a sharply rising influx of Syrian refugees through the Northern and Eastern borders. 

Within this setting, The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) has taken on a number of roles to help ensure that ensure that the response to the refugee influx, while focusing on the immediate lifesaving needs of the refugee population, also contributes to longer-term objectives, more resilient host communities and supporting durable solutions. In that regard, UNDP plays three equally important and reinforcing roles; 1) Support to vulnerable host communities integrated components for stabilization, and livelihoods; 2) Inter-agency coordination through UNDP’s co-lead of the Lebanon Crisis Response Plan and 3) Sector Coordination through UNDP’s lead of the Livelihoods, Social Stability and Energy Sector.
