March dreams of an open-minded, peaceful and tolerant Lebanese society, with diversity and equality in rights among all its citizens
Established in February 2011, MARCH is a civil movement, actively seeking to safe keep the tenets of a peaceful and prosperous Lebanon. MARCH believes that this can only happen in a strong, democratic and integrally sovereign nation, where rule of law is imposed, the constitution exercised, and human rights respected. One necessary condition towards that end, and a primary objective of March is to instill, at the individual level, a genuine respect for national and civic duties and rights, and equality in them. We focus our efforts on the youth, who represent the largest pool of future actors and our best hopes for positive change in leadership. MARCH’s mission is to militate for enforcing rule of law and democracy, and promote both effective citizenship and genuine reconciliation between the various communities, by educating, motivating, involving and empowering the youth through creative campaigning, awareness-raising initiatives, and focused projects. GIVING CIVIL SOCIETY A SAY IN THE FUTURE OF LEBANON
MARCH works on raising awareness among fellow citizens on the importance of pledging total allegiance to the State and its Constitution and contributing to the future of their country. Our objective is to get this message through so that civil society gets out of its apparent lethargy, stands up and be counted, and asserts an uncompromising presence in the political arena. The leaders of tomorrow's Lebanon democratic, independent, free and sovereign - will arise from there.

وقّعت جمعية مارش أمس مذكرة تفاهم جديدة مع رئيس بلدية طرابلس، الدكتور عبد الحميد كريمة، لنكمل العمل معًا على مشاريع مجتمعية في مختلف أنحاء المدينة.
وتشمل الاتفاقية تأهيل الحديقتين العامتين في باب التبانة وجبل محسن، بالإضافة إلى تجميل المنطقة المحيطة بكنيسة سيدة الحارة ومدرسة المطران الرعائية.
لكن هذه الشراكة ليست فقط لتحسين الأماكن العامة.
فقد شارك شباب وشابات من باب التبانة وجبل محسن في الاجتماع مع البلدية، وتحاوروا مباشرة مع رئيس البلدية حول بعض القضايا والاحتياجات التي تواجه مجتمعاتهم.
بالنسبة لهؤلاء الشباب، الخدمة المجتمعية ليست مجرد تحسين للأماكن العامة. هي أيضًا أن يكون لهم مكان على طاولة الحوار، وأن يتواصلوا مباشرة مع المؤسسات العامة، ويشاركوا في القرارات التي تؤثر على مجتمعاتهم، ويخلقوا مساحات تسمح بإعادة بناء التعاون والثقة خطوة بخطوة.
تأتي هذه الاتفاقية استكمالًا لتعاون سابق مع البلدية، من بينه تركيب إنارة للشوارع تعمل على الطاقة الشمسية في باب التبانة وجبل محسن وعلى أوتوستراد الملولة، إلى جانب مشاريع أخرى.

There’s something special about these matches. Game after game, our “Hona Beirut” youth have been meeting the men and women of the Lebanese Civil Defence, not in an emergency, but on the field, as friends. The same people who show up for us in the hardest moments were here laughing, passing, and celebrating goals right beside our young people. ⚽
These aren’t just games. They’re the start of real trust, and we’re grateful for every moment of it.❤️

From communities affected by conflict in Lebanon to the Paris Peace Forum 2026. 🌍
📣 We are proud to announce that MARCH’s project has been selected as one of 40 solutions to be presented at this year’s Paris Peace Forum, chosen from 607 applications from more than 90 countries.
On 10–11 November, MARCH will be in Paris, in the Forum’s Space for Solutions, sharing an approach built through years of work on the ground: addressing the drivers of violence, supporting rehabilitation, and creating pathways for individuals to become active contributors to peace in their communities.
This selection is an opportunity to bring MARCH’s experience to an international stage, connect with decision-makers, experts and potential partners, and explore how this model can be strengthened and adapted to other conflict-affected contexts. 🤝
We look forward to joining organizations and initiatives from around the world working to turn concrete solutions into lasting impact.
Proud to represent Lebanon and bring lessons from our communities to this global conversation. 🇱🇧

🇱🇧 Men Chmelak la Jnoubak. من شمالك لجنوبك
They grew up in the same country, sometimes only an hour or two apart, and had never met.
They arrived in separate buses from Tripoli, Beirut and South Lebanon. At first, they sat on different sides of the room.
That’s how most first meetings start. Not with hostility, just with distance. People stay close to what they know.
So we didn’t start with a discussion. We started with games. 🤝 Mixed teams, shared challenges, and tasks that couldn’t be done alone.
By the break, the different sides of the room were gone.
Then the talking started. 💬 Where they’re from. What people say about their areas. What they’d heard about each other, and what they had assumed without ever meeting.
By the end, nobody was talking about “them” anymore. Just names.
At a time when divisive narratives are getting louder, we need more of this. 🇱🇧
This was the first meeting between MARCH youth from Beirut and Tripoli and DPNA youth from South Lebanon. It won’t be the last.
Thank you to Centre de crise et de soutien (CDCS) and Ambassade de France au Liban for supporting our “United Under One Anthem” project and helping make these encounters possible. ❤️

We don’t post much about this part. It doesn’t photograph well.
But no young person moves past what they’ve lived through because someone handed them a training certificate. That work happens slowly, in small rooms, with people who know how to hold it.
☀️💧 Where there is sun, there can be water. And where there are young people, there can be change.
76 solar panels. 8 water wells. More than 2,000 people in Wadi Nahle, Tripoli with a reliable source of water powered entirely by the sun.
Installed by youth from Jabal Mohsen, Beb el Tebbaneh, Mankoubin and Wadi Nahle. Different neighborhoods, one team, one city.
Clean energy, clean water, and a community that no longer has to wait for either.
☀️💧 وين في شمس، فينا نأمّن مي. ووين في شباب، فينا نعمل تغيير.
٧٦ لوح طاقة شمسية، ٨ آبار مي، وأكتر من ٢,٠٠٠ شخص بوادي نحلة – طرابلس صار عندن مصدر مي، شغّال بالكامل على الطاقة الشمسية.
ركّبها شباب من جبل محسن، باب التبانة، المنكوبين ووادي نحلة. مناطق مختلفة، فريق واحد، ومدينة وحدة.
طاقة نظيفة، مي نظيفة، ومجتمع ما عاد مضطر ينطر ليأمّن أبسط حقوقه. ☀️💧

☀️ ٧٦ لوحاً شمسياً. ٨ آبار. أكثر من ٢٠٠٠ شخص لديهم مياه. وفريق واحد بناها معاً.
في وادي النحلة – طرابلس، صارت الشمس هي التي تضخّ المياه.
أنجزنا تركيب ٧٦ لوحاً للطاقة الشمسية لتشغيل ٨ آبار مياه كانت متوقفة بانتظار كهرباء نادراً ما تصل. اليوم تعمل هذه الآبار على الطاقة الشمسية: بلا فاتورة محروقات، وبلا مولّدات، وبلا انتظار.
لكن الألواح ليست القصة كاملة. نفّذ هذا المشروع شبابٌ من مناطق مختلفة في طرابلس — من جبل محسن وباب التبانة والمنكوبين ووادي النحلة — عملوا جنباً إلى جنب، في الموقع نفسه، من أجل الهدف نفسه. مناطق مختلفة، مشروع واحد، مدينة واحدة.
أكثر من ٢٠٠٠ شخص باتوا يحصلون على مياه بشكل مستمر لبيوتهم وعائلاتهم وأرضهم.
☀️ 76 panels. 8 wells. 2,000+ people with water. And one team that built it together.
In Wadi Nahle, Tripoli, the sun now does the pumping.
We’ve just installed 76 new solar panels to bring 8 water wells back to life, wells that had been standing still, waiting for electricity that rarely came. Today they run on sunlight: no fuel bills, no generators, no waiting for the power to return.
But the panels are only half the story. This project was carried out by young people from across Tripoli — from Jabal Mohsen, Beb el Tebbaneh, Mankoubin and Wadi Nahle — working side by side, on the same site, toward the same result. Different neighbourhoods, one project, one city.
More than 2,000 people now have a steady source of water for their homes, their families and their land.
من أوتوستراد التبانة، شريان أساسي بيربط طرابلس بعكار والضنية وبيروت، منكمّل مشروع الإنارة بالطاقة الشمسية. ☀️💡
مع بعض، عم نضوّي شوارع طرابلس ونخلق مساحات أكتر أماناً للجميع. 💛
From Beb Al-Tebbaneh Highway, a key artery connecting Tripoli with Akkar, Dinnieh, and Beirut, we’re continuing our solar-powered street lighting project. ☀️💡
Together, we’re lighting up Tripoli and creating safer streets for everyone. 💛
