The Prosperity Co-Laboratory for Lebanon (PROCOL Lebanon) is a transdisciplinary research collaboration that focuses on speeding up transitions to sustainable, prosperous societies in the context of mass displacement, and to improve the quality of people’s lives through citizen-led research.
Our research and learning is focused on inclusive growth and prosperity. It is about the prosperity of Lebanon in particular, but is also part of a larger agenda for developing sustainable ways to improve the quality of life of people throughout the world.
In the context of Lebanon, developing an agenda of prosperity is particularly urgent because of the pressures that the country is facing as a result of the ongoing refugee crisis. Addressing these challenges through the lens of prosperity increases the potential of future economic development and growth in Lebanon.
PROCOL Lebanon is based on a network of partnerships for citizen-led research, capacity building, place-based interventions and policy design that will demonstrate the means through which transformation for prosperity can be achieved.
