A mother and daughter stand next to crumbling water pipes at the Chatila refugee camp in Beruit, Lebanon. The camp was originally created in 1949 for Palestinian refugees, to accommodate 3,000 people. Today, it houses more than 22,000 people, and more arrive every day due to the Syrian conflict. According to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) two-thirds of the population live on less than $6 a day, and 56% don’t have jobs.
