Summary
The missing people of Lebanon aren't merely numbers and are, just like every one of us, people with their own story.
ACT for the Disappeared is joined by the Committee of the Families of the Kidnapped and Disappeared in Lebanon, Support for Lebanese in Detention and Exile, and several other family and civil society groups.
Through the Fushat Amal project, information and stories about the missing and disappeared people will be available on an interactive website that the public can visit to learn about the issue.
The site also has a space where the family can share testimonials on how the loss of a missing family member has impacted on them to give people a personal insight into the loss these families endured.
Di Mayo also said that anyone who might have important but sensitive information can also share them in confidence with the team – particularly if they could help in learning the fate of any of the missing people or could point ACT to individual or mass graves.
By knowing more about the cases of the missing and relating to them and to the demands of the families, ACT hopes that this will help put more pressure on the Lebanese state to create the national commission to investigate.
