Discussions focused on the unprecedented socio-economic and financial crisis that has weighed down on Lebanon during the past three years, its impact on people’s daily lives and the urgent reforms needed to place the country back on a path of recovery. 

The economic experts shared their views on priority areas of concern and on the proposed agenda of reforms, particularly those required to finalize an agreement with the IMF. The discussions also covered the different areas of cooperation between Lebanon and UN as the Special Coordinator highlighted the UN’s commitment to supporting Lebanon and its people out of this crisis.
