Bourj ash-Shamali Camp: "Harvesting Oranges" Early in the morning, between 5 and 6am, a wave of footsteps and whispering voices can be heard in the narrow alleys of Bourj ash-Shamali Refugee Camp in South Lebanon.

More than two-thirds of the camp's labor force work at least part-time in agriculture. |
