Social connections related to health and well-being needs identified by children and adolescents affected by displacement in Lebanon: a participatory research study
The study highlights that children, adolescents, and their caregivers in displaced settings in Lebanon have varied social connections when exploring resources related to key areas of concern. Overall, there is an importance placed on the role of family members in their social networks. However, the social connections and resources available differ depending on the circumstances, as evidenced by the variation in connections named across the three scenarios. Understanding the components of social networks, what drives them, and how they differ by sector, is essential in planning and maintaining programs and policies that meet evolving needs in resource-constrained settings.
