Economic Empowerment of Host and Syrian Refugee women in Lebanon

2013-2014

 

This project aimed to mitigate the deteriorating economic situation of Syrian refugees and corresponding host families in Lebanon by provided income generation opportunities to over 200 Lebanese & Syrian women.  It was a 12-month project funded by the US Embassy in Beirut and operating in the North, South, Bekaa, & Mount Lebanon.  We trained the women in food processing and catering, handicraft creation, and food safety and hygiene practices.
