Civil Influence Forum: Lebanon as a Citizenship Model
The activities of the "Civil Impact Forum" focused on the theme "The State of Citizenship: Lebanon as a Model," where participants discussed Lebanon's success in transitioning from a pluralistic political entity to a state based on true citizenship. Speakers emphasized that the issue is not in diversity itself, but in turning it into a source of wealth or divisions. They stressed that building a citizenship-based state requires implementing the constitution, the Taif Agreement, strengthening institutions, and eliminating political sectarianism. They pointed out that while Lebanon has succeeded in defining its political identity, it has failed to build genuine citizenship, as sectarian affiliations still dominate institutions, hindering full sovereignty, justice, and equality. They called for re-establishing Lebanon on foundations of citizenship, which include equal rights and duties, justice, the creation of a shared national memory, and transitioning from managing sectarian balances to building a true state that respects the rights of all its citizens.
