Harvard Group Visits Sidon, Refugee Camp in Lebanon

A group of 45 Harvard University students visited the Lebanese city of Sidon and the Ain Al-Hilweh refugee camp on Friday as part of its tour of Lebanon. The group selects a different nation to visit each year, this year being the first time Lebanon has been chosen. The Hariri Foundation initiated the invitation. The group expressed its interest in seeing the situation of Palestinian refugees in Lebanon as part of its over-all study of the country. The group of 45 (selected from more than 150 applicants) is also meeting with Lebanese politicians.
