UNDP has signed an agreement with the Lebanese government for reconstruction projects including granting monetary donations to the Fishermen Associations in Lebanon. The projects are to support theses associations and strengthen their capabilities. An amount of 90.000 USD was allocated for repairing damaged boats, providing nets and engines and rebuilding the fish market in Ouzaai.
