“Lebanese Municipal Agenda”: ICT portal in the service of citizens

10-5-2017

For the first time in Lebanon, the Agenda Municipal Libanais officially launched on May 1st its electronic portal http://www.agendamunicipallibanais.com/ that promotes the work of municipalities across Lebanon through a range of services and benefits, according to An Nahar today. The newspaper drew attention to the mastermind behind the idea, Abir Khoury Jbeily, a woman with 11 years of experience in municipal affairs and, namely, protocol management at Zuk Mkhail municipality. Khoury, who also owns and runs a 1-year-old company, Eventigani, spoke to An Nahar about this innovative venture. After a long and arduous journey in municipal work, it is difficult to attain a high level of success in the field, particularly that “we do not know what municipalities accomplish at the level of the nation”, Khoury told An Nahar reporter. She pointed out that this site brings all the municipalities together under one umbrella and acts as a liaison extending to them an opportunity to cooperate locally and globally and publicize their agendas and activities. It also informs Lebanese emigrants on all the forthcoming summer events and festivals planned by each municipality. Jbeily noted that services on the calendar section of the website are free for any municipality wishing to advertise, and communicate through the hotline its events and activities, and publish them on the platform. The agenda, Jbeili explained, provides the writing, editing and translation of speeches, documents and correspondences, as well as project management, twinning, design and distribution of brochures, books, while ensuring the quality and speed of delivery at affordable prices.
