| Summary: | To provide a solid basis to define its
needs and frame its priorities in terms of the specific
assistance it seeks from the international community as well
as to inform its own domestic policy response, the
Government of Lebanon (GoL) requested the World Bank to lead
an Economic and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) of the
Syrian conflict on Lebanon. Upon an official request from
the Prime Minister of Lebanon, through a letter addressed to
the World Bank dated July 25, 2013, this assessment has been
conducted under the leadership of the World Bank, in
collaboration with the United Nation (UN), the European
Union (EU), and the International Monetary Fund (IMF). The
outcome is the present report, of which the accuracy,
quality and suitability for further dissemination is the
responsibility of the World Bank, with input from the above
mentioned key partners. |
