Common Effort (CE), a subgrantee of MoreThanAJob in Lebanon, put in motion its ongoing project and initiative under the title of “Psychosocial and Economic Resilience of Women in Deprived Areas” in the South region.
Common Effort started its mapping activities for beneficiaries and local entities for psychosocial support referrals. CE extended its outreach to encompass Saida, whereby 200 beneficiaries were contacted and 40% participated. CE outreach officers followed a rigorous needs identification process prior to selecting the final beneficiaries.
Focusing on the main theme of “Strengthening Psychosocial and Economic Resilience of Women in Deprived Areas”, the initiative provided a platform for sharing and learning, availed an opportunity to further explore the role of women in building and strengthening resilience and promoted dialogue and sharing of experiences on gender responsive resilience related programs and policies in Lebanon.
