Why this matters
The crisis in Lebanon has led to a significant displacement of people, with over 1 million reported displaced, including 134,534 internally displaced persons residing in open shelters. The high levels of violence, with nearly 24,000 incidents reported, exacerbate the protection needs of the affected population. The response efforts by Protection, Child Protection, and Gender-Based Violence partners have reached nearly 276,000 people, with a focus on emergency protection interventions, including cash assistance, support to persons with disabilities, and dignity kit distribution. The regional variation in protection reach, with the highest numbers reported in Mount Lebanon, South, and Baalbek-El Hermel, highlights the need for targeted interventions to address the specific needs of different communities. The fact that women and girls represent the majority of people reached through GBV interventions underscores the importance of addressing the unique vulnerabilities of this population in the response efforts.
