Acknowledgments

101 Facts & Figures on the Syrian Refugee Crisis is the result of an outstanding collaboration with colleagues at the Issam Fares Institute for Public Policy and International Affairs at the American University of Beirut, in particular the joint efforts of the Refugee Research and Policy team and the Communications team; both teams talented, thoughtful, and meticulous. Yara Mourad, Program Manager of the Refugee Research and Policy Program and Michael Huijer, Communications Manager have seamlessly and collegially worked in making this book. One person who deserves greatest acknowledgment is Rawya Khodor, who with her rigorous research skills, critical comments, and generosity in ideas has made this book a reality. Indeed, the support of the UNHCR office in Lebanon, especially Mireille Girard, Karolina Lindholm Billing and Carol El Sayed, is hugely appreciated in making and producing this publication.
