The executive director of Lebanese Center for Policy Studies (LCPS), Sami Atallah, was recently on MTV, a Lebanese independent media channel, to discuss the importance of decentralization and local governance. During the interview, Atallah argued that instead of relying on the central government, the public should advocate for and expect their local municipalities to deliver goods and services. CIPE is supporting LCPS to help achieve this objective, including strengthening the internal grant transfer system in Lebanon.
