Call for Graphic Designers

Background

The Republic of Lebanon’s National Strategy for Preventing Violent Extremism was published in 2017.

The strategy seeks to develop a “culture of prevention” through an ambitious programme of work that engages a wide array of Lebanese government and society in a national effort to regain social trust, promote citizenship and achieve social justice.  

The strategy was developed through an extensive process of dialogue and engagement involving all twenty-nine government ministries. The next phase of development means running a similar engagement and consultation exercise across Lebanese society as a whole. 
This national consultation process will begin in January 2019 and run for approximately one year.  

It is a vital opportunity to communicate and promote the strategy’s purpose to both governmental and public stakeholders - providing them with a sense of equity and ownership and ensuring the strategy secures a license to operate. 

The national consultation process will therefore be accompanied by a communications campaign with two objectives in mind: 

The primary objective is to raise awareness of, and encourage engagement with, the national consultation exercise around Lebanon’s National Strategy for Preventing Violent Extremism. 

The secondary objective is to help deliver the National Strategy’s wider objectives to regain social trust, promote citizenship and achieve social justice.
