This International Youth Day, we are listening to young people whose life are still on hold for the past years.

An estimated 770,000 children and young people in Lebanon are living with heightened distress after repeated violence and displacement. Batoul is one of them.

Despite the ceasefire, around 412,700 people remain displaced, including 30,500 in collective shelters (over 53 per cent women and girls) in 292 collective shelters as of 17 July. 732,594 people having returned to their areas of origin.

Humanitarian needs remain acute in both displacement and return areas.

Through support from the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA), we continue to reach displaced families with essential humanitarian support.

📦 So far, we have distributed:
✅ 1,085 Hygiene and Menstrual Health Management Kits helping women and girls maintain their health, dignity, and well-being.
✅ 305 Baby Kits providing essential supplies to support the care and protection of infants and young children.

These items were delivered directly to collective shelters across Beirut and Mount Lebanon, ensuring timely access to essential supplies for displaced families.

إلى أن تتمكن العائلات من العودة الآمنة إلى منازلها وتُرمّم المدارس، ستبقى الصفوف مراكز إيواء، بدلًا من أن تكون أماكن للتعلّم.

Until families can safely return home and schools are restored, classrooms will continue to serve as shelters, rather than places of learning.

Three weeks after the ceasefire agreement, the crisis is far from over for children and families in Lebanon.

Caring for those who care for others is not a luxury, it is a necessity. 💙

After months of supporting children, families, and displaced communities through crisis, our frontline teams took a well-deserved pause.

Recognising the importance of staff wellbeing, 32 dedicated staff from Plan International Lebanon, Nabad for Development, and Sheild Association came together for a self-care day in nature to breathe, reconnect, and recharge through team-building and recreational activities. 🌿

Many of these colleagues are displaced themselves or affected by the war, yet they've continued showing up for others every single day.

"Delivering support during an emergency while being displaced ourselves was incredibly heavy. This self-care day gave us the chance to pause, prioritise our wellbeing, and return recharged to continue supporting the communities we serve," says Mohammad Amer, a Project Manager at Plan International Lebanon.

Dayana and her father had tried once before to return to their hometown in South Lebanon after the cessation of hostilities was announced, but returned back halfway to due to the security situation. Today they are trying again.

Across Lebanon, many families making the same journey are arriving to find homes destroyed, infrastructure non-functional, and no means of income. Some are even returning to collective shelters only after a few days.

Humanitarian support cannot stop at the moment of return. Recovery requires long-term investment in livelihoods, basic services, and in the conditions that make return sustainable.

For girls like Dayana, going home should mean more than a tent over rubble. It should mean safety, education, and a future in their own community.
