Lebanon has become the country hosting the highest number of displaced people per capita in the world due to the Syrian crisis. This creates new socioeconomic challenges in Lebanon, which has not fully recovered from previous crises itself. With the financial support of the Japanese government, and in partnership with the Lebanese Ministry of Industry UNIDO responds to the challenges, supporting the resilience of the Lebanese economy. The project focuses on SMEs in the Bekaa Valley.
