Secondary only to ending the siege of Gaza and achieving Statehood, the enactment of the basic civil right to work and to own a home for the hundreds of thousands of Palestinian Refugees living in squalor in Lebanon is perhaps the most critical and immediately achievable goal of the Palestinian resistance and the ideals enshrined in the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Friends of Palestine and supporters of basic civil rights, wherever they live, can help this happen without violence or martyrs by signing and distributing the Online Petition and by twinning with a Palestinian Refugee in Lebanon.в
The Palestine Civil Rights Campaign-Lebanon and the Sabra Shatila Foundation Beirut, Lebanon-Washington DC

вWe the undersigned from many countries, mindful of the urgent need for equal human rights for our Palestinian Refugee sisters and brothers in Lebanon in their Civil, Political, Social and Economic dimensions, herewith signify our solidarity with Lebanon as this great country nobly corrects six decades of injustices by enacting civil rights legislation for her guests from Palestine.
Affixing my name to this petition expresses my wish to personally вtwinв in solidarity with one of Lebanonвs Palestinian refugees as they and their Lebanese hosts continue to work and prepare for their Return.

    • Exercising the internationally mandated Right of Return is paramount. For the short(er) and interim term, I enthusiastically support this campaign for addressing the crucial need for action on Palestinian refugees' civil and human rights while they languish in the great nation of Lebanon. Kudos to all involved!

    • It is shocking that the lives of such long term resident Palestinian refugees are still so circumscribed. Please consider this petition with favor.

    • 62 years in refugee camps. The worlds oldest and longest refugee population. It's long passt time for Lebanon to open its job market to the Palestinians of Lebanon. There are 72 jobs in Lebanon not available to Palestinians born in Lebanese camps.
