Lebanon – Polish Center for International Aid (PCPM)

Aid to a clinic for Syrian refugees in Lebanon

COUNTRY / PROBLEM

Lebanon is situated in West Asia, in the Middle East. It borders Syria and Israel. Since March 2011, 1.5 million Syrian refugees have come to Lebanon. Most of them are staying in border regions, such as the city of Bireh. The increase in the population translates into a number of issues related to infrastructure inefficiencies, employment, as well as access to education and health care.

ORGANISATION

The Polish Center for International Aid (PCPM), established in 2006, is one of the largest Polish NGOs operating internationally. In Lebanon, PCPM is involved in humanitarian aid activities for Syrian refugees, including managing the daily work of the stationary and mobile clinic in Bireh.

PROJECTS

Kulczyk Foundation supported a Bireh clinic by expanding the scope of its activities, covering personnel expenses, as well as financing a portion of medicines and medical supplies necessary for the functioning of the clinic.

Social awareness programs

Our aid projects help us understand the problems the modern world is facing. Our documentaires and educational programs drive change across societies .

Documentaries

Our documentaries shine a light on community problems in different parts of the world, and present organisations and local unsung heros who benefit from our support. In Poland, the Domino Effect TV series is created in cooperation with TVN - the largest private television in Poland. Through this work, we are able to reach those who might have never heard about a specific issue or the way in which they can help. This partnership results in a number of long form documentaries, which have been recognised at international film festivals. As part of our partnership with the CNN Freedom Project, we also produce a series of documentaries for English speaking audience. The series explores the issues of modern slavery and human trafficking, and is regularly broadcast on CNN International.

Educational programs

Since the beginning of its existence, the Kulczyk Foundation has been working to shape the socio-emotional competences of children and adolescents. We prepare unique lesson plans adapted to various stages of education. These focus on explainining the complex world of universal values and emotions, encourage reflection and the ability to draw conclusions. Ultimately help to build knowledge about ourselves and the world, and to shape attitudes towards the reality that surrounds us. As part of this commitement, we also provide workshops, conferences for teachers and faculty staff. We believe that wise education, implemented in a spirit of freedom and empathy, is a basic component of sustainable development for every human being, as well as a chance for a good start in adult life. No matter where they are from.
