National
Al Taef Forum was launched by Hariri Foundation in 2009, in the heart of the capital, Beirut. The forum is named after Al Taef Accord held in 1989, marking the transition from wars and civil conflicts to unity, peace, construction, reconciliation and renewal. Ever since the accord, Lebanon was able to pass many difficult tests pertaining to renewing confidence in the democratic system, rebuilding the state and its civil and military institutions, achieving political balance, and establishing the foundations of civil peace.
Al Taef Forum is a space for dialogue and interaction, with a focus on the need for policy reform at the institutional level (public, private, and civic), as a prerequisite for achieving a sustainable state of human development. Al Taef Forum was established to promote the utilization of research, studies, seminars, and workshops in promoting national development and peace.
