Towards a Sustainable Day After : Managing Demolition Rubble in the Aftermath of the 2024 Lebanon Conflict

Abstract

Reconstruction after destructive events offers countries an opportunity to open markets for national industries across development, humanitarian, and corporate sectors. However, post-disaster recovery in Lebanon faces challenges such as weak governance, lack of coordination among actors, fragmented data and conflicting external funding agendas. Furthermore, environmental concerns and the absence of a sustainable holistic approach, continue to generate disparities and inefficiencies in reconstruction efforts.
