The official launch of the is this week in Beirut.

The official launch of the RELIEF Centre took place between 2nd and 6th of October. The main launch event was at the Grand Serail - the headquarters of the Prime minister of Lebanon. Partner institutes Centre for Lebanese Studies and The Issam Fares Institute at AUB were also present. The team have been working hard with their Lebanese colleagues this week working on the first steps of the project.

Speaking to journalists, Professor Henrietta Moore emphasised how "In many challenging situations in the world, it鈥檚 often the case that projects come in saying that they would do something, and when they do something, they go away; and then whatever they have done stops which does not go into anything in the future; this is why it is very important to start thinking about long-term legacy from day one".

Professor Moore also explained how the RELIEF Centre, like other听IGP projects, would go beyond old economic indicators which can side-track real progress, saying 鈥渉aving a healthy economy is not just about having headline figures to report in newspapers, but also about making sure that you do something with the wealth your country creates, and you do it for everybody in that situation across the country and, in particular, attend to those who are most vulnerable鈥�.
