Lebanon
Since 2019, people in Lebanon have faced a multitude of crises. The political instability coupled with the deterioration of the economic situation and the collapse of the local currency plunged 80% of the population into poverty, all of this aggravated by the COVID-19 pandemic and the Beirut port explosion. Consequently, school dropouts, child labour and child marriage increased drastically. Tdh works to provide affected children with appropriate services and promotes a child-friendly justice system.
