Nassim Al Baher – Advancing Coastal Resilience in Lebanon
Nassim Al Baher is a three-year initiative funded by Agence Française de Développement (AFD) led by Fair Trade Lebanon, and in partnership with Centre national de la recherche scientifique (CNRS), Lebanese Developers, and Tabitha. It aims to protect Lebanon’s northern coastal ecosystems while strengthening the livelihoods of fishing communities from Okaibe to Abdeh. The project promotes sustainable fishing, reduces plastic pollution, and supports responsible coastal tourism. By training fishermen, empowering women and youth, and raising public awareness, Nassim Al Baher works to build a resilient, inclusive, and environmentally sustainable future for Lebanon’s coastline.
