The paper's purpose is to contribute to the substantial knowledge of the role's understanding and determinants for the Palestinian refugee youth living in the camps of Lebanon. They suffer from state's human rights violation and discrimination, lack of dignified living conditions, future prospects and foreseen durable solutions in the longest forced displacement. The research questions: How refugee youth perceive their own role in the mist of these difficult circumstances? And how do they plan for the future? How do Palestinian youth living in camps understand and reflect their role in the context of protracted displacement in Lebanon? Using a qualitative approach and thematic analysis to analyze the collected data will be used. Sixteen semi-structured interviews will be conducted with Palestinian refugees' youth living in the twelve Palestine refugee camps in Lebanon over the phone, and through video calls. The research is contributing academically to understand the role of the refugee youth from a people –centered approach and this brings an added value to the knowledge production which is based on lived experiences. Second, the research's importance is supporting the emphasis on the connection between resilience and perceived roles and expectations and protracted displacement. Third, it provides refugee youth the platform to amplify their own stories and understanding of their roles. Sharing these stories helps in shifting the narratives and stigma through giving rooms for the Palestinian voices. It allows to reflect on the roles that individuals may have and create in their displacement to thrive and reform their identity
