Annual Report 2020

Annual Reports

The significant economic, political and health difficulties in 2020 presented new and even more pressing challenges for migrant domestic workers (MDWs) in Lebanon. The Covid-19 pandemic and the resulting lockdowns, the August 4th explosion in Beirut and the ongoing economic crisis has left MDWs in an even more vulnerable condition. The numbers of migrants made homeless, without an income and without the paperwork or funds to return to their home country has created an increasingly dire situation. Meeting the most basic of needs, such as food and paying rent, has become a constant concern for many members of the MDW community. As a result, our plans in 2020 needed to adapt to the context, as did our activities.
