Lebanon – In the Eye of the Storm?
15.06.2022
16:00 - 17:30
Lebanon has repeatedly made headlines in recent years, mostly negative ones: the economic and financial crises finally culminated in the October 2019 protests. Since then, Lebanon has not settled down. What followed was a steady deterioration in living standards, including regular power outages and gasoline shortages, accompanied by rising inflation.
Will the recent parliamentary elections show a possible turnaround in a different direction? Where does Lebanon stand now, and how did this small Middle Eastern country maneuver itself into this crisis?
We will discuss these and other questions together with:
Jakub Jaycay
PhD candidate in History at the American University of Beirut
Nassim Abi Ghanem
Lecturer at Bard College Berlin
Zeina El Haga
Lebanese National Commission for UNESCO
