Strategies and tactics for developing a strategy for economic and environmental sustainability for Tearfund in Lebanon

Published about 12 hours ago

The strategy focuses on advancing economic and environmental sustainability in Lebanon through various initiatives led by Tearfund. By promoting sustainable agriculture practices, the strategy aims to educate local farmers on sustainable farming techniques, introduce drought-resistant crops, and facilitate access to microloans, enabling farmers to invest in sustainable equipment. An example includes organizing workshops and setting up demonstration farms to highlight best practices.

To enhance renewable energy initiatives, the strategy proposes conducting feasibility studies for solar energy projects and establishing partnerships with renewable energy providers. Community workshops will educate on the benefits of solar panels, while incentives will encourage adoption in households and community buildings. Such measures aim to reduce reliance on non-renewable energy sources.

The development of sustainable community economic models involves conducting assessments to identify the needs of targeted communities. By supporting local entrepreneurs, organizing workshops, and facilitating networking events, the strategy seeks to foster community-based tourism and crafts initiatives. For instance, a sustainability badge will identify businesses meeting environmental criteria, encouraging others to follow suit.
