Lebanon
Bordering Syria, Lebanon is home to 1 million Syrian refugees and more than 175,000 Palestinian refugees who often live in precarious conditions. Children are the first to experience domestic and sexual violence, exploitation, early marriage and dropping out of school. Tdh protects them, improves their living conditions and gives them hope for the future.
