Palestinian Youth in Lebanon between marginalization, exploitation and radicalization

Hope, better future, stability : these are words that young Palestinian refugees in Lebanon never had the chance to say. The common feeling among them is that there is « no future ».

They feel stigmatized by negative stereotypes and are often associated with « Jihadism » or delinquency.
