UAB Studies Effect of Civil War on Education in Lebanon

Dr. Andrzej Kulczycki, associate professor in the department of health care organization and policy at the University of Alabama at Birmingham School of Public Health, recently examined the impact of Lebanon's civil war (1975-1991) on disparities in education among the country's main religious sects as well as across various regions. District of registration is adopted as a proxy for religious affiliation through a novel, detailed classification to assess sectarian differentials by region and regional differentials within each major religious group.
