  • Capital Investment Programme
    Capital Investment Programme Report L17023-0100D-RPT-PM-01 REV 7 Capital Investment Programme INTRODUCTION Since the start of the Syrian crisis, economic growth in Lebanon has slowed down sharply and the number of people living in Lebanon has increased sharply, with an estimated 1.5 million displaced Syrians entering Lebanon during 2011-2017. Despite the major reconstruction of Lebanon’s infrastructure that took place subsequent to the end of the 15-year conflict in 1990, with low levels of public investments after 2000, due in part to fiscal and debt limitations and delays in project implementation, Lebanon’s infrastructure still had significant gaps in various infrastructure sectors when the Syrian crisis evolved. The Syrian crisis placed increased pressure on Lebanon’s infrastructure, leading to deterioration of existing infrastructure, in particular in transport, and a widening of the gaps, in particular in the electricity sector. A sharp expansion of investments in Lebanon’s infrastructure is key to and a recovery of economic growth in the medium term, with increased private sector productivity, and the creation of employment opportunities in the short term. The short-term priority is the completion of projects for which for which external financing has already been secured. These are not part of the Capital Investment Programme (CIP). The CIP is a key pillar of the Government’s vision for stabilization and development against the background of the Syrian crisis and the effects this has had on Lebanon. It comprises new projects for infrastructure investment that will eliminate the gaps that exists between the demand and need for infrastructure services, in all sectors, and the supply, and reduce the cost to the economy of the lack of adequate infrastructure.

    AMERICAN UNIVERSITY OF BEIRUT IN THE SHADOW OF PLANNING? ECONOMIC AND COMMUNAL INTERESTS IN THE MAKING OF THE SHEMLAN MASTER PLAN by LANA SLEIMAN SALMAN A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Urban Planning and Policy to the Department of Architecture and Design of the Faculty of Engineering and Architecture at the American University of Beirut Beirut, Lebanon January 2014 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This thesis has been in the making for longer than I would like to admit. In between, life happened. I would not have been able to finish this project without the support of many people no acknowledgment would do justice to, but I will try. Mona Fawaz, my thesis advisor, provided patient advice over the years. Throughout our meetings, she continuously added more nuances to this work, and pointed out all the analytical steps I have missed. The rigor and political commitment of her scholarship are admirable and inspirational. Thank you Mona for your patience, and your enthusiasm about this work and its potential. Mona Harb has closely accompanied my journey in the MUPP program and beyond. Her support throughout various stages of this work and my professional career were crucial. Thank you. In subtle and obvious ways, I am very much their student. Hiba Bou Akar’s work was the original inspiration behind this thesis. Her perseverance and academic creativity are a model to follow. She sets a high bar. Thank you Hiba. Nisreen Salti witnessed my evolution from a sophomore at the economics department to a graduate student. Her comments as someone from outside the discipline were enlightening.
