The Lebanese Emigrant statue, Port of Beirut
An institution for the Lebanese who build, decide and advise, in Beirut, São Paulo, Paris, Dubai, Abidjan, Accra, Sydney and every place we landed. Admission is by application and review.
A verified register of Lebanese seniority across forty-seven countries, searchable by sector, jurisdiction, function and expertise. Most of these people you would never have found.
The registerNo cold approaches. Introductions travel through a member who knows you both, and the record of who introduced whom is kept.
The floorPublished positions, commissioned research, and a standing voice on the economic and institutional questions that concern Lebanon and the Lebanese abroad.
Impact and diplomacyBetween four and fourteen million people of Lebanese origin live outside Lebanon. Nobody has ever counted them properly, because nobody has ever had reason to. We do.
Distribution below reflects the working estimates the register is built against. The interactive map replaces this panel once the founding roll is populated.
Influential Lebanese, and the stories behind them. Not titles on a list, the individuals who carried the work.
