Commissioned by the United Nations Human Settlements Programme (UN-Habitat) Lebanon Country Programme to an external evaluator consultant, the present end-term evaluation covers the project entitled “Multi-sectoral response to the humanitarian crisis in the North of Lebanon through the human security approach”. Funded by the United Nations Trust Fund for Human Security (UNTFHS), the project objective is “the resilience and security of host and refugee populations living in the most vulnerable areas of Tripoli are enhanced through the delivery of basic needs and protection services, while strengthening the relationship between residents and local government officials”.
The project implementation involved partnership between three United Nations Organizations (UNO): the United Nations Human Settlements Programme (UN-Habitat), the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) and the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN Women). This partnership is not new to this project. In fact, it builds on the successful past partnership established in 2017 where the three UNOs were engaged in promoting Human Security principles through their various designed and implemented activities in Tripoli (with funds made also available by the UNTFHS).
