Research on diaspora engagement in humanitarian response and economic recovery in selected areas of Lebanon (Phase II)

DRC

Bodhi was contracted by DRC to conduct Phase II of this study, with the mandate to confirm the Phase I findings, bring to the fore the perspective of the Lebanese diaspora supporting households and communities in the region and, document diaspora engagement models of humanitarian response. The overall purpose of the consultancy is to complement the knowledge base already established in Phase I, by confirming its findings and, crucially, adding the perspective of the Lebanese diaspora across two selected countries. The study will be conducted through two stages of a rigorous participatory qualitative methodology. The research will adopt qualitative research methods including desk-based analysis and Key Informant Interviews (KIIs). The use of different data collection methods will enable the triangulation of multiple sources of data, ensuring the findings are accurate and reliable.
