Lebanese diaspora

The Lebanese diaspora refers to the movement and communities of Lebanese people living outside Lebanon, spread across the world due to historic migration driven by economic hardship, political instability, and conflict. These expatriates have established vibrant communities in countries like Brazil, the United States, West Africa, and Australia, often maintaining cultural ties through language, cuisine, and traditions. The diaspora significantly influences Lebanon's economy through remittances and contributes to its cultural diversity. Overall, it reflects Lebanon’s global footprint and the resilience of its people in maintaining their identity abroad.
