A folkloric troupe has been founded by a group of Palestinian young men taking refuge in Lebanon’s AlBekaa region.
The so-called “Al-Taghriba AlFalastiniya” troupe aims to revive Palestine’s cultural and artistic legacy through music. Dozens attended its première performed in AlBekaa.
The number of PRS in Lebanon has been gradually decreasing over the past two years, and UNRWA estimated that in 2020 the country continued to host approximately 27,700 PRS (8,450 families).
UNRWA identified PRS in Lebanon as the country’s most vulnerable community due to their precarious legal status. According to the Agency’s monitoring data, around 55 percent of PRS do not possess valid legal residency documents.
The lack of a valid legal status, often coupled with outdated civil registration documents, results in severely restricted freedom of movement for some PRS in Lebanon due to fear of arrest, detention and being issued a departure order.
