Moderated by Dr. Pierre El Haddad, Lecturer at USJ and Founder of SEPT, the session, attended by representatives of 14 organizations members of the ALF Lebanese Network focused mainly on the expanding role of NGOs in Lebanon, their needs and resources in these times of crisis.
Discussions revolved around the importance, or not, of cooperation to Anna Lindh members, followed by an exercise to identify the main dysfunctions in cooperation and prescriptive practices to improve NGO cooperation.
As the first in-person workshop for ALF members organized during Covid-19, with health safety protocols strictly applied regarding hand hygiene, physical distancing and wearing masks, the workshop offered an opportunity for the participants to not only meet in person after months of lockdown, but to share ideas and deliberate on past experiences and ongoing projects.
