Initiative for a UNESCWA and Rotary Clubs of Lebanon partnership

The aim is to respond to the 8th UN-MDG and the Lebanon Rotary Clubs’ will to better serve their communities by implementing the 6 Areas of Focus of The Rotary Foundation of Rotary International.

The elements of this initiative are as follows:

a) Determining the community’s priorities in correlation with the UN-MDGs and TRF 6AOF, based on the UNESCWA studies and its annual report.

b) An initiative to create a “Rotary Lebanon Fund” for these priorities which would be funded by the Rotary Clubs of Lebanon and partners’ donations. This fund would be dedicated to support the achievement of the community’s priorities in Lebanon. An operational system as well as the means to benefit from the fund would also be established.

c) The Rotary Clubs of Lebanon will develop a system of appropriate standards and mechanisms to fund the programs and projects falling under this initiative in each concerned Lebanese region together with mechanisms for monitoring and surveillance. In addition, identifying the technical support required to develop policies and strategies to achieve the community’s priorities under 8 UN-MDGs* and 6 TRF-AOF* and providing this support through technical capacities available in Lebanon within the framework of UNESCWA and Rotary Clubs of Lebanon cooperation.

 

d) The establishment of a joint working group between UNESCWA and Lebanon Rotary Clubs concerned in order to develop a proper national cooperation strategy. The cooperation would include the assessment of the conditions of UNESCWA, The Rotary Foundation and Rotary International Code of Policies, determine Lebanon Rotary Clubs of Lebanon possibilities in conformity with their Bylaws and develop a work program as well as operational plans to achieve the goals.

Finally, regardless of the national dimension, this initiative is seen as crucial step towards UN mission, UNESCWA and Rotary Clubs of Lebanon cooperation inspired by “Service above Self”, the Motto of Rotary International, through critical partnership for human development.
