Paper long abstract:
This paper focuses on the displacement of Palestinian refugees from Syria and to explore the meaning of these multiple displacements. Many Palestinian refugees have already left Syria to neighboring countries such as Jordan, Egypt, Lebanon, Gaza, Turkey and European countries. It discusses the challenges facing UN, international NGOs and the Palestinian Authority (PA), in response to the Palestinian Refugees crisis from Syria to neighboring countries and Europe. This includes assessing the efforts of these agencies in responding to the Palestinian displaced in Syria as well.
It will allow the researcher to examine the impact of the Syrian crisis on the refugees' national identity and their dreams to return to their homeland in Palestine. It will explore the meaning of these multiple displacements in light of a comprehensive peace deal in the Middle East (including the consideration regarding the right to return). It explores if the refugees will support any future comprehensive peace plan in the Middle East, compromising the problem of Palestinian refugees caused by the establishment of Israel in 1948. The researcher develops his article in reviewing the existing literature written about the Palestinian refugees who left Syria to neighboring countries in Jordan, Lebanon, Turkey and Europe. The researcher will conduct a number of interviews with Palestinian leaders, migrants themselves, and International workers if possible. Too, it is based on the author own academic research and professional experiences.
