SECTION III

Palestinians in Lebanon and the Role of Non-governmental Organizations

JABER SULEIMAN

Arab Resource Centre for Popular Arts Beirut

This analysis of the role of Palestinian NGOs in Lebanon outlines the socioeconomic, political and legal framework in which they operate. Subsequent sections deal with the historical background of the NGOs, their activities, and the sectors in which they work. Their efforts to improve coordination are discussed and the article describes their interactions with other Lebanese, Palestinian, Arab and international organizations. Finally the author examines the problems and obstacles faced by Palestinian NGOs given their unique and often difficult legal and political situation. The article ends with suggestions as to how NGOs can improve the services they offer and adapt to an uncertain future.
