FRH organized seven workshops in the districts of Zahle (Bekaa Governorate), Baalbek (Baalbek-Hermel Governorate), Tripoli (Northern Lebanon Governorate), Baabda and Metn (Mount Lebanon Governorate), Akkar (Akkar Governorate), and Saida (Southern Lebanon Governorate). The workshops were attended by 90 participants, including stateless persons and members of the local communities such as mukhtars, representatives of local NGOs, charities, and initiatives, public school directors, directors of primary health care centers, representatives of MoSA SCDs, midwives, municipality council members, representatives of UN agencies, and representatives of MPs.
The objectives of these workshops were to raise awareness within the local community about the challenges and difficulties faced by stateless persons, understand the dynamics of the local community in terms of social relationships and interactions, assess the needs and degree of integration of stateless individuals, examine whether they experience discrimination, and analyze the treatment they receive from the local community.
