Lebanon has long been grappling with socioeconomic challenges, including political instability, economic crisis, and high unemployment rates. Migrant workers, who make up a significant portion of the labor force have not been secured the tragedies and are increasingly facing difficulties in accessing necessities. Typically coming from African and Asian countries seeking employment opportunities and better livelihoods, migrant workers in Lebanon frequently find themselves in low-paying jobs with substandard working conditions, exacerbating their vulnerability within society. With the financial support of IOM, CL aims to provide a total of 700 unique vulnerable male and female migrant workers in Lebanon with legal awareness, assistance, and multipurpose cash, as per the below activities:
- 520 beneficiaries will receive awareness sessions on protection and legal topics
- 150 beneficiaries will receive case management
- 150 beneficiaries will receive PCA for 3 months
- 35 beneficiaries will receive legal assistance
