Apr 10, 2013 | by International Rescue Committee, Save the children, DRC, Oxfam
This report includes the findings from the EMMA assessment of the construction labor market system in the North and Bekaa governorates. UNHCR profiling statistics from the North indicate that a large number of adult refugees have experience in the construction sector, and construction is one of the first areas where refugees turn to seek income-earning opportunities after arriving in Lebanon. This EMMA focuses specifically on labor related to the construction of homes and buildings, including hospitals, schools, and public buildings.
