Memo to Health Ministry for Vaccinating Migrant Workers [here]

A memo was drafted and sent to the minister of public health following a meeting between the ministry’s director general and the National Federation of Employees’ and Workers’ Union in Lebanon (FENASOL).

The memo requested the opening of vaccination centers on Sundays for migrant workers who only have that day off; and addressed the issue of migrants who do not possess any form of documentation and hence cannot register for the vaccine.

A paper in the new issue of Radical Housing Journal featured a contribution by ARM’s executive director on the increasing lack of access to housing in the context of the pandemic, in a conversation with the journal’s editors.
