RISE2030
RISE2030 , a project managed by Sustain The World Org and Sustainable Empowerment for Youth International, is community-led initiative that focuses on women and youth empowerment, aiming at building capacity & improving living conditions of those living in deprived areas, through education, employment, and empowerment.
RISE2030 initiated a direct response to the Lebanese Financial and COVID crisis. Economic and social costs are becoming overwhelming, businesses and jobs are disappearing, as poverty increases. More than 60% of the country's young people are unemployed and 45% of Lebanese are now living in poverty as per the World Bank. The Lebanese crisis is ranked as one of the top 3 most severe economic crisis in the world in the past 150 years. Additionally, we initiated the Beirut Blast Response . On August 4th, the massive Beirut explosion has left hundreds of thousands without access to basic living standards (shelters & food) and more than 300,000 families were homeless.
