Qatar Red Crescent Society's (QRCS) mission in Lebanon has completed the Warm Winter project for 2018-2019, distributing winterisation aid to Syrian refugees in Al Bekaa and Arsal regions.
The purpose of the project was to improve the living conditions of Syrians at refugee camps, as well as the poorest host families. Heating fuel and kid's clothes were distributed, in order to help them withstand the cold weather during the winter.
Emergency teams were deployed for quick intervention, by clearing blocked roads to ensure mobility and protect the inhabitants from being stuck in ice. When necessary, they would remove rainwater from the tents and evacuate the refugee families.
In the process of evaluating the overall winter response, QRCS personnel are currently visiting the refugee camps of Arsal and Al-Bekaa to talk to the beneficiaries, get their feedback about the quantity and quality of the delivered aid, identify their needs, engage them in decision-making, and outline the best ways to help them.
