Abstract:
Lebanon is currently facing drought-like conditions not seen in recent decades, with rainfall down by more than 50 per cent and reservoirs at alarmingly low levels. More than 1.85 million people (roughly one third of the total population) live in areas highly vulnerable to drought, while 44 per cent of the population relies on unsafe and costly water trucking. Lake Qaraoun, Lebanon’s largest reservoir, has received only 13 per cent of its usual inflows, crippling agriculture, hydropower, and water supply
To prepare for and respond to these impacts, the WaSH and Food Security & Agriculture sectors together estimate that approximately USD 100 million will be required.
