According to Amnesty International1, in February 2016, more than 4.5 million of persons fled Syria since the beginning of the revolution. Moreover, 4 persons over 5 are women or children (‘’Are we listening’’, IRC 2014). In February 2016, more than 1 067 785 persons are registered as refugees2. Lebanon, the worst-affected among Syria’s neighbours, is now home to the largest number of Syrian refugees per capita relative to its total population, putting a severe strain on the country’s fragile infrastructure, economy, and security. Among the Syrian refugee population in Lebanon, the Bekaa Valley contains the high concentration of refugees, with over 400,000 registered with UNHCR.3 The new refugee population from Syria is primarily living in makeshift tents, or in poor and overcrowded urban areas, and is suffering from poor infrastructure and living conditions, lack of job opportunities, educational exclusion and increased costs of living.
