Palestinian Gatherings Project Summary

April 21, 2015

This is a project of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) that falls under the UNDP Lebanon Stabilization and Recovery Program – Supporting Resilience in a Time of Crisis.
Active in the 42 Palestinian Gatherings across Lebanon since 2012, this project is designed to help stabilize and develop the resilience of these host communities, home to 110,000 original Palestinian dwellers (PRL) and recently some 30,000
Palestinian and Syrian refugees (PRS and SRS) as a result of the Syrian crisis.
In 2014, we reached over 105,500 beneficiaries by upgrading WASH and Basic Urban Services (BUS), enhancing shelter conditions, and raising awareness on healthy and environmental practices, as well through efforts to coordinate NGOs and agencies’ response in the Gatherings.
