Description
The project aims to contribute to raise institutional awareness and strengthen the capacity of the relevant Lebanese institutions to successfully address the plight of the most vulnerable among Lebanese youth and particularly those who are exposed to the risk of abuse and to the worst forms of violence such as human trafficking and commercial exploitation with a particular focus on gender issues. The project envisages a range of interventions targeting the grass root and local level that are inspired by the methodology of ‘Children Friendly Cities’, a concept developed in the framework of the Convention for Protection of Child. These actions will draw on the involvement of three Lebanese municipalities and build on their willingness to identify and implement specific Local Plans of Action for the upholding of the well being and the promotion of fundamental rights of minors living in those neighbourhoods. This pilot intervention will target Northern Lebanon with a view to balancing the engagement of the Italian cooperation in favour of Lebanese population that has so far predominantly focused on the Southern districts of the country. In 2013, the Italian Ministry of foreign Affair and International Cooperation approved 400.000 Euro as additional funds for support to lebanese hosting communities. read more close
