Since 2019, Lebanon has experienced an unprecedented
multi-sectoral crisis. The economic and financial crisis created a political
and social crisis. In the absence of reforms and in the face of price
hyperinflation, the country gradually plunges into poverty. Without employment
opportunities, young people, the country’s living forces, are forced into immigration.
At the same time, Lebanese local authorities, one of the last ramparts of
public action, are strongly impacted by the crisis which only exacerbates their
financial, technical, and human difficulties. However, they remain one of the
last functional administrations in the country capable of meeting the needs of
its population.
