IDARA: Empowering Tomorrow’s Lebanese Leaders!

IDARA, launched in June 2023, aims to prepare aspiring leaders for future opportunities. In collaboration with Localised Management Consulting and supported by the Friedrich Naumann Foundation for Freedom (FNF) Lebanon, this initiative strives to promote transformative leadership. The initial phase of IDARA provided university students across Lebanon with a foundation in civic engagement. Led by experts in socio-political fields, it covered a wide range of topics, including political intelligence and team management, significantly enhancing participants' capabilities.
