OUR MISSION

ADR’S MISSION IS TO EMPOWER THE MARGINALIZED AND HELP THEM MAKE A BETTER LIVING
THROUGH ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS.

OUR SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES ARE:

GIVE ACCESS TO TRAINING, TOOLS, INFORMATION AND FINANCIAL SERVICES.
GIVE BETTER ACCESS TO LABOR MARKET AND HELP TO SET INCOME GENERATING PROJECTS.
ENCOURAGE PARTNERSHIP AND DECENTRALIZED COOPERATION.
PROJECTS ARE DESIGNED AND IMPLEMENTED ACCORDING TO THE WISHES AND NEEDS OF THE
LOCAL POPULATION.


OUR HISTORY

THE ACTIVITY OF THE ASSOCIATION STARTED IN THE EARLY 90’S WHERE BY SOME OF THE
FOUNDERS THAT CAME ORIGINALLY FROM THE CITY OF TYRE LAUNCHED SEVERAL INITIATIVES
IN AN INFORMAL WAY.


ABOUT THAT TIME SOUTH LEBANON WAS SERIOUSLY SUFFERING DUE TO MORE THAN 20 YEARS
OF CONFLICTS MAINLY DUE TO ISRAELI OCCUPATION. THANKS TO DONATIONS OF LEBANESE
INDIVIDUALS, EMERGENCY FUNDS WERE ALLOCATED FOR PEOPLE IN NEED MAINLY ADDRESSING
THE FISHERMEN COMMUNITY, ONE OF THE MOST MARGINALIZED GROUPS IN LEBANON.


BY APRIL 6TH 1998 THE ASSOCIATION WAS OFFICIALLY REGISTERED AT THE LEBANESE
MINISTRY OF INTERIOR. INSTITUTIONAL FUNDING FROM INTERNATIONAL AND NATIONAL
SOURCES WAS THEN AVAILABLE TO THE ASSOCIATION THAT INCREASED THE AREAS OF
INTERVENTION AND SET TWO FORMAL PROGRAMS: MICRO CREDIT AND VOCATIONAL TRAINING.


THE CONTINUOUS PRIVATE AND INSTITUTIONAL SUPPORT HAS ALLOWED THE ASSOCIATION TO
SUSTAIN ITS ACTIVITIES THAT ARE CURRENTLY PROVIDED THROUGH FOUR PROGRAMS:
AGRICULTURE, MICRO CREDIT, SOCIAL SERVICES AND VOCATIONAL TRAINING.





PRESIDENT LETTER

I COME ORIGINALLY FROM TYRE, I FOLLOWED MY EDUCATION IN BEIRUT, BUT ALL MY
VACATIONS WERE SPENT IN TYRE. MY HOUSE WAS AND IS STILL IN THE OLD QUARTER OF
THE CITY.

UNFORTUNATELY, WITH TIME PASSING I OBSERVED AND WITNESSED THE DETERIORATION OF
LIVING CONDITIONS NOT ONLY IN TYRE BUT ALSO IN OTHER AREAS OF LEBANON.

ADR WAS CREATED TO ADDRESS THESE ISSUES AND HELP THE LEBANESE PEOPLE TO OVERCOME
THE CONSEQUENCES OF WAR AND CONFLICTS.

OUR ASSOCIATION WANTS TO GIVE ITS ASSISTANCE TO THE GREATEST NUMBER OF
MARGINALIZED AND DISADVANTAGED PEOPLE; THOSE WHO LACK IN EDUCATION OR
PROFESSIONAL APTITUDE OR THOSE WHO DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO BANK LOANS.

WE SPECIALIZE IN ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND NOT IN HUMANITARIAN AND RELIEF IN
THEIR STRICT SENSE. OUR INTERVENTIONS ALLOW PEOPLE TO BECOME AN ACTIVE PART OF
THE ECONOMIC LIFE AND TO INCREASE THEIR OPPORTUNITIES AND THE OPPORTUNITIES OF
THEIR CHILDREN IN THE FUTURE.

FOR THIS PURPOSE , ADR HAS AIMED SINCE ITS BEGINNINGS TO CONSOLIDATE ITS
CAPACITY ON THE TECHNICAL AND PROFESSIONAL LEVEL, MORE IMPORTANTLY, THE
ASSOCIATION DISTINGUISHES ITSELF BY THE LACK OF ANY POLITICAL, FAMILIAL, AND
CONFESSIONAL AFFILIATION.

THIS HAS ALLOWED US TO ATTRACT THE ATTENTION OF INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS SUCH
US THE EUROPEAN UNION AND THE UNITED NATIONS AND TO DEVELOP FOUR SOLID PROGRAMS
(AGRICULTURE, MICRO CREDIT, SOCIAL SERVICES AND VOCATIONAL TRAINING) TAILORED TO
THE NEEDS OF THE AREA.

ADR BOARD AND MEMBERS ARE GRATEFUL TO ALL INDIVIDUALS AND INSTITUTIONS THAT HAVE
SUPPORTED AND CONTINUE TO SUPPORT US TO ACHIEVE THE IMPROVEMENT OF SOCIAL AND
LIVING CONDITIONS IN LEBANON.

DR. YOUSSEF EL KHALIL
PRESIDENT
