| The Syria crisis (Forced Migration Review 47) |
FMR 47 Foreword: the inheritance of loss |
As the civil war in Syria drags on, the scale of displacement continues to increase. While the crisis may be prolonged, refugees and IDPs need support now for their protection, their recovery, and both their immediate and their long-term prospects. |

FMR 47 Limited legal status for refugees from Syria in Lebanon |
Having limited legal status has direct negative consequences for Syrian refugees’ access to protection and assistance during their stay in Lebanon. Limited legal status also increases the risks of abuse and exploitation. |

FMR 47 The impact of displacement on disabled, injured and older Syrian refugees |
In contexts of displacement it is critical to recognise that some groups in the population may require specific attention. Awareness of these needs has major consequences for the types of services required, and the way they are delivered. |
