2020 Syria Regional Appeal - Lebanon - Safety and Security

UNRWA requires funding to maintain and reinforce its security procedures and equipment in 2020. The Agency continuously monitors the security situation in Lebanon, in coordination with other UN Agencies and the Government of Lebanon, to identify threats and any possible deterioration of the security situation that could have an adverse impact on the population and the Agency?s operations and programmes. Funding under this component will also support preparedness for critical events through front-line staff training on security awareness and delivery of humanitarian assistance in case of an emergency, as well as through additional security staff, the provision of critical equipment related to communication and emergency trauma kits. Improved security and control measures in accessing UNRWA facilities will keep staff safe and secure while executing their duties.
