The brochure was developed to present the “Population and Development Strategies programme” (PDS) that aims at supporting the integration of population and development in related sectors towards improving the quality of life of the Lebanese people by alleviating their RH status, reducing gender gaps in socio-economic sectors, and achieving a balance between population dynamics and socio-economic development. The PDS programme that targets a wide range of stakeholders is considered to be the technical arm of the National Permanent Population Committee through conducting research, advocacy, disseminating knowledge and contributing to capacity development and institutional building. The brochure also highlights the project’s website www.pdslebanon.org that contains useful information on population and development.
