This report is the second section of a two-part series, “The Consequences of Limited Legal Status for Syrian Refugees in Lebanon: NRC Field Assessment in Aarsal and Wadi Khaled,” which presents the findings of an assessment The Norwegian Refugee Council conducted between June and November 2013.

While part one of the series focuses on two specific locations within Lebanon with high numbers of refugees, this assessment (part two) examines the situation of Syrian refugees in other parts of Lebanon (the North, the Bekaa, and the South). The presentation of these findings aims to provide a broader geographical overview and more comprehensive understanding of key challenges faced by refugees with limited legal status in Lebanon, as well as differences encountered in statuses between locations. 

This report was published by the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC), with assistance from the European Commission’s Humanitarian Aid Department and the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (NMFA).
