Who we are

Frontiers Rights is a nonpolitical, secular nonprofit organization dedicated to advocating for the rights of refugees and stateless individuals in Lebanon. Established in 2015 by a group of Lebanese human rights activists, the association's members have been actively working in this field since 1999.

Our Objectives

To promote justice and respect for the human rights and dignity of refugees, migrants, and stateless persons. We provide legal protection and ensure access to administrative justice in both international and domestic institutions. We also advocate for the Lebanese authorities to respect the rule of law and basic human rights. Our work focuses on defending the fundamental rights of marginalized groups in Lebanon, including addressing issues of statelessness, the right to asylum, personal freedom, safety, and protection from forced return (nonrefoulement).

Our Mission


To actively work on alleviating the suffering of marginalized populations in Lebanon. We support them by improving their legal protection, enabling them to have better living conditions and seeking self-fulfillment.
