Under the patronage of the Lebanese Prime Minister Al Sheikh Saad Al Hariri, a ceremony was held on Saturday 22/6/2019 to lay the Foundation Stone for the Integrated Economic Development Project for the province of Kharoub in Kafia, Lebanon.

The ceremony was attended by the MP H.E Dr. Mohammed Al-Hajjar, Representing the President H.E Mr Saad Al Hariri.

The project also included an Entrepreneurship Center to train the youth on entrepreneurship and innovation, in order to create sustainable economic development in the region and provide job opportunities for the youth and women from the region and encourage the displaced to return to contribute to the development of their region.
