Lebanon: Creating sustainable jobs and stable income

Summary

The project aims at creating jobs and generating stable income in the craft sector for women and youth artisans, thus contributing to social stabilization and economic development of the region. A market driven approach will be used in order to enable Lebanese craft products gain a better share of the mid-range to high-end home furnishing, home décor, and handicrafts markets. Specialized skills and competencies of Syrian and Lebanese craftsmen coming from different regions will be used to reach out to a maximum number of young women and men, including in remote areas of the country.
