Project ID
00063469


Background
The UNCT in Lebanon is currently in the process of finalizing its CCA/UNDAF process, and at the time of writing this proposal UNDAF outcomes were being drafted. The focus of the current proposal is primarily the implantation of conflict resolution inter and intra Palestinian and Lebanese communities activities, empowerment of women and youth, and the development of the institutional capacities.
The presented joint proramme is focusing on a national ownership through the development plans, aligned with national priorities. The community participation in all stages of the process ensures and contributes to the national development process.

Achievements & Expected Results
This two year programme aims to ensure that the disaffected and disenfranchised groups are addressed more systematically and strategically in the near-term as part of a larger development and peace building programme that the UN in Lebanon was developing in complement to the next UNDAF cycle (2010-2014), which will now be part of an interim planning process.

Results Framework:
1- Conflict resolution and mediation mechanisms developed and sustained in order to facilitate the resolution of inter- and intra-communal tensions between Palestinians and Lebanese.
2- Conflict risk in North Lebanon communities reduced through the design and implementation of inclusive socio-economic initiatives.
