The Lebanese health system struggles to provide basic services as the ongoing economic crisis and political unrest have left more than 80 per cent of people residing in Lebanon below the poverty line and in dire need of assistance.

Access to healthcare in the country is threatened by the pressure on the deteriorating public services on top of the soaring prices of private healthcare. Lebanon hosts more than 1.5 million Syrian and Palestinian refugees, in addition to approximately 250,000 migrant workers.  

We have adapted our services in the past years to provide free, quality healthcare to many communities, including Lebanese people. We run and support health facilities in six governorates, providing general, paediatric, reproductive, and mental healthcare, as well as treatment for non-communicable disease, vaccinations, and health promotion.
