After the ceasefire, a group of architects and planners from the
American University of Beirut formed the Reconstruction Unit to
help in the recovery process and in rebuilding the lives of those
affected by the 2006 war in Lebanon .
Here, a series of case studies documenting the work of the Unit
discusses the lessons to be learned from the experiences of Lebanon
after the July War, and suggests how those lessons might be applied
elsewhere.
The cases are diverse in terms of scale, type of intervention,
methods, and approaches to the situation on the ground. Critical
issues such as community participation, heritage protection, damage
assessment and compensation policies, the role of the state, and
capacity building are explored and the success and failures
assessed.
