This study was result of 500 questionnaires to Palestinian and Syrian Refugees families from SYRIA are living in Shatila camp and its surroundings… Those families have received relief support from Children & Youth centre during last support from MSF in mid of January 2013. The Children & Youth Centre – CYC social workers and volunteers have filled the questionnaires and entered the data to the computer statistical program… But as result to the lack of information, we are working on updating the questionnaire and reach to completed information…

The table shows that the total benefited families are 500, distributed according to the nationality51.5% Palestinian and 48.5 Syrians. That shows the majority of beneficiaries were Palestinians.Which means many Syrian families didn't receive assistants.or there were wrong registration.

On other hand only 14 of the family holders were female, 8 Palestinians and 6 Syrians.That meansthe refugees gave wrong answer to the question of the family holders, because there are manyfamilies' male holders are not in Lebanon, either they are arrested, dead or they remain in Syria,but the family consider the family holder is the male and not the female holders even if he isnot present or even dead…which need explanation from the data collector to reach to true results.

454TAB5: The refugees distribution according to the time period of their coming toLebanonThe table shows that the serious period of flee to Beirut area has started since July 2012. While during 2011 almost nobody considered refugees.. That reflects why before September 2012 there was no serious support to the refugees, who mostly were hosted by relatives and friends… Of course these figures doesn't reflectthe real number of the refugees, but it's a sample represent the reality of the refugees

This table is showing the distribution of the refugees according to their ages by years…The table 7 is almost reflecting the normal statistics in Syria concerning the age pyramid or the family average number etc…But still this statistic doesn't reflect the reality, out of lack of information and the rush of the social workers seeking to facilitate the distribution to the families on the expense of paying enough attention to the data more than simple registering the families…That needs to updating the information and data which have been collected.Still there are simple figures about the Enfant children below one year - 35 represent 1.4% which can reach to 50 and the different, while the young children below 3 year are 93 children 3.5%. The same with children age group below 6 year, the Kindergarten age is about 101 which is 3.9% , But the schools age 6 to 17 years old 349 equal to 13.66 of the total refugees, including 194 children 7.6 are Elementary school level… That reflect the need of providing special education care to this group… The table has showed that there are big number of labor and can be part of the labor market, 281 equal to 11%, These figures is just the third of total number… out of shortage with the answers which reflect 1785 equal to 69.9% of the total number of refugees.…That means each figure has to multiplied with 3 time more… The tables didn't shows clearly the Educational need, and the health conditions among the refugees… which means there is necessity to follow up and updating the refugees information very soon….
