This report presents the findings and analysis of Global One, Penny Appeal and URDA from the joint assessment carried out in Lebanon and Syria. It aims to contribute to an improved understanding of the gendered impact of the Syrian conflict on displaced women, and the intersection of religious and cultural traditions within these issues. It concludes with detailed recommendations for international agencies, local and international NGOs and national governments; with the aim of aiding them in the planning and implementation of gendered and religio-culturally sensitive programmes, which address the specific needs of women. The recommendations are derived from the findings of our data, and highlight the current limitations within humanitarian response strategies. Global One aims to illustrate how collaborative work on programmes, which focus on gender from a religio-cultural perspective can improve the lives of both refugee and host communities in the region.
