Our Exclusive Database
Our Exclusive Database

Statistics Lebanon believes in the critical importance of accurate data collection. In 2009, we took pride in being the first research agency in Lebanon, to create a totally exclusive and comprehensive national database known as the “Lebanon Citizens” database in order to establish a valid and credible sampling frame for research studies.

National in scope, it detailed the socio-demographic profiles for all of the 1611 regions covering all Lebanese territory. Our sampling system is updated every year and based on a complete listing of all localities, small villages, medium villages, small towns, large towns, and cities, obtained from “door to door” visits covering each and every household in Lebanon.

Statistics Lebanon has conducted various studies on education, population, shelter and living conditions of the Palestinian refugee populations. During which Statistics Lebanon compiled and verified data sets of Palestinian refugees living in the official camps and in unofficial conglomerations outside in order to draw accurate sampling frames.

And recently, in response to the Syrian crisis, Statistics Lebanon again invested in research projects to map the Syrian refugee presence in Lebanon. Statistic Lebanon team visited the displaced Syrian conglomerations and produced Nation-Wide Scale Maps on the distribution of Syrian refugees in Lebanon. The Data was adopted by the Lebanese government in October 2014 and distributed to international agencies and foreign governments. Results of the ‘Shelter Poll Survey on Syrian Refugees’ conducted by Statistics Lebanon was published by the UNHCR in 2013.
