موجز: الإقتصاد السياسي لإدارة أزمة جائحة كوفيد-١٩ في تونس: هل هي أزمة حُكم أم فشلٌ على مستوى المنظومة الصحّية؟

تصدَّرَ عناوين الأخبار التصريحُ الذي أدلت به الناطقة الرسمية لوزارة الصحّة، في منتصف عام ٢٠٢١، وتحدّثت فيه عن انهيار النظام الصحّي التونسي وعجزه عن توفير الخدمات العلاجية للعديد من المرضى، إلى جانب الارتفاع الكبير الذي سجَّله عدّاد الإصابات والوفيات إثر تفشّي الموجة الرابعة للجائحة. وكانَ لهذا التصريح غير الدقيق والمستعجل تداعياتٌ واسعة على المستويَيْن الداخلي والخارجي، إذ استنكرت الجمعيات هذا التصريح الذي فنّدته الحكومة في اليوم نفسه.

Understanding the social protection needs of civil society workers in Lebanon. Towards strengthening social rights and security for all.

The social protection landscape in Lebanon is characterised by its fragmentation and exclusionary nature, leaving the most vulnerable and marginalised with little access to any kind of safety net. Workers in the civil society sector are particularly affected by this situation notably as a result of the increased casualisation of employment within the sector, and of more structural factors inherent to financing mechanisms and streams of nonprofits.

Civil Society Review issue 3 - Unraveling “Civil Society:” Policy, Dependency Networks, and Tamed Discontent. Reflections from Lebanon and Palestine

The articles gathered in this issue of the Civil Society Review offer insights, based on case studies, into the transformation of the “associative sector” in Lebanon, a sector generally seen to be at the core of an increasingly active civil society. Four of these studies relate to Lebanon, while the fifth brings a welcome comparison with the Palestinian case. It also includes a review of a book that investigates the Lebanese and Libyan contexts.

Volunteerism as a key to improved resilience and a strengthened local response to crises within Lebanon.

Introduction[1]

For many analysts, the situation in Lebanon appears to be at a tipping point of violence, as the country has welcomed more than 1.5 million Syrian refugees since the start of the conflict in Syria. The consequences that this has brought to Lebanese society have been social, economic and structural, among others.
