After the Beirut blast: How to help Lebanon?

At a donor conference on Sunday attended by more than 30 heads of state and government representatives, around 200 million euros in emergency aid was pledged for the reconstruction of Lebanon after the devastating explosion in Beirut. The aid money is to be channelled through the UN, bypassing authorities suspected of corruption. Lebanon needs more than money now, commentators stress.
