Lebanese Parliament
Overview

Assistance has been provided to the Lebanese Parliament since 1994. Projects have been focused on enhancing the legislative and administrative capacities of Parliament, expanding citizen participation in the public policy debate, and supporting the development of Parliament's role as a democratic institution. A number of strategies, including policy dialogue trips, development of legal databases and reference guides, and creation of customized information systems, were utilized to enhance the legislative capabilities of Parliament. The administrative work of Parliament was reorganized and restructured through the introduction of the appropriate information technology systems and tools and through the specialized training of staff.
