This three-year research project, funded by the Leverhulme Trust, studied the impact of the Syrian refugee crisis on Arab statehood, mainly from an International Relations perspective. Filippo's research focused on how Lebanon, Jordan and Iraq have coped with the influx of forced migrants generated by the Syrian crisis since 2011 and what consequences this process had on the state as an institution. A research paper, produced as part of the project, focuses on the Lebanese government’s record regarding the refugee crisis since the Syrian civil war began in 2011 and investigates ways in which the different stakeholders can work together to stem the crisis and plan for Lebanon’s future.
