Abstract
This report covers socio-political developments in 2009 and 2010 related to migration from, or return
to, the occupied Palestinian territory (oPt), and also to the status of the Palestinian refugees, especially
those residing in Lebanon. This report takes its data from the 2010 Migration’s Survey in the
Palestinian Territory of the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics (PCBS), as well as the Socio-
Economic Survey of Palestinian Refugees in Lebanon, developed jointly by the United Nations Relief
and Works Agency (UNRWA) and the American University of Beirut (AUB). The report conclude
that emigration from the oPt will continue to be related with the political context and living conditions
of the Palestinian people under the Israeli occupation. In addition, the Palestinian refugee problem will
remains a central issue which, if not resolved on a just basis and in line with international law, will
hamstring the peace process.
Résumé
Ce rapport couvre les développements sociopolitiques en 2009-2010 relatifs : d’une part, aux
migrations de, ou de retour vers, les Territoires palestiniens occupés ; d’autre part, aux statuts des
réfugiés palestiniens, en particulier ceux vivants au Liban. Ce rapport s’appuie principalement sur
deux études : Migration’s Survey in the Palestinian Territory réalisée par le Bureau central palestinien
de la statistique (PCBS) et Socio-Economic Survey of Palestinian Refugees in Lebanon réalisée par
l’UNRWA (United Nations Relief and Works Agency) et l’Université américaine de Beyrouth (AUB).
Ce rapport conclut que l’émigration depuis les Territoires palestiniens occupés est liée au contexte
politique et aux conditions de vie des Palestiniens vivants sous occupation israélienne. De plus, la
question des réfugiés palestiniens représente un problème central qui, s’il n’est pas réglé de façon
juste, selon le droit international, handicape le processus de paix.
