With the outbreak of the COVID19 pandemic, governments, policymakers, organizations, as well as individuals, have been rethinking their priorities, core values, plans and practices to build economic resilience and improve their response to external shocks. In Lebanon, the pandemic has contributed to the exacerbation of the already existing socioeconomic challenges rendering economic resilience a matter of necessity rather than a choice. Due to this situation and the disruption of traditional learning and training modes, Rural Entrepreneurs (RE) trains high school students from public schools online noting that RE had successfully piloted the program offline and online. The overall objective of this program is to raise awareness on the value and importance of entrepreneurship in today’s workplace and equip high school students with the proper mindset and tools to approach problems in innovative ways and come up with business ideas that serve their communities.

APRODER focuses on the political, economic and social empowerment of women and youth, as well as the organizations to which they belong, holding them accountable for their own development and urging them to use the knowledge and spaces built as a tool or mechanism to achieve the development of their communities and sectors. We faithfully believe in the power of people and that changes are feasible when each person is involved in their personal, family, community and organizational development processes.
