«We can do this», together
A year has passed since German Chancellor Angela Merkel declared her famous catchphrase «Wir schaffen das!» (We can do this) opening Germany’s door to hundreds of thousands of refugees.

Few months later, a new integration law has been agreed upon to better integrate refugees into German society, helping them to find work or training. In return to the aid offered by the state, refugees were expected to show readiness and eagerness to become a part of Germany.
Not just like Germany, even more so Lebanon has played an important role in hosting Syrian refugees. 
The small country with enough problems of its own didn’t choose this situation. However, it is working on the best ways to challenge it on all levels. 
One of these challenges resides in realizing the socio-economic benefits that result from this temporary migration to Lebanon. Not to put aside most inconveniences of this migration, but if refugees were openly considered an opportunity to be welcomed rather than a burden to be shared, so many more substantial economic dividends could be yield and new ideas and technologies could spark.
The role of media in shedding light on this issue is crucial. In this supplement you have in hands, several topics ranging from economic, social, and cultural aspects of the repercussions of the Syrian crisis are highlighted. I invite you to enjoy reading the content of this supplement, which is also focusing on several peace building and national concerns.
