Communication interventions supporting positive civic action in Lebanon

Helpdesk Report
  • Dylan O’Driscoll
March 2018

Question

What communications or programmatic efforts are available to support positive civic action programmes in Lebanon? What is the media landscape for communication interventions?

Summary

This rapid review synthesises data from academic, policy and NGO sources on the role media can play in creating/easing tensions between refugees and the host community, and within the host community itself. Acknowledging the importance media can play in perceptions, and considering the confessional and political nature of the media, the review also maps the media/social media in Lebanon and highlights some successes in utilising media to ease tensions.
