Two MIO-ECSDE member organisations, Makhzoumi Foundation and HEAD (Human Association for Environment and Development), have officially signed a Memorandum of Understanding aimed at strengthening cooperation on environmental and community initiatives in Lebanon.
The agreement was signed in Beirut in the presence of HEAD President Marie Therese Seif and Makhzoumi Foundation Director General Samer Safah. It focuses on advancing environmental sustainability and raising environmental awareness through a range of joint activities and programmes.
Areas of cooperation include afforestation and reforestation campaigns, seedling distribution, beach and public space clean-ups, environmental awareness sessions, eco-tourism educational activities, and initiatives promoting sustainability and the protection of natural resources.
Marie Therese Seif highlighted the importance of strengthening joint environmental action in Lebanon, especially in light of current environmental and climate challenges, while Samer Safah reaffirmed the Foundation’s commitment to supporting initiatives that empower communities and promote sustainability.
MIO-ECSDE warmly congratulates both member organisations on formalising this collaboration and wishes them every success in their joint efforts.
