Past Projects

Since its founding in 2006 by Joseph Matta in response to the Lebanon War, Salam LADC has been dedicated to fostering community dialogue and cooperation throughout Lebanon. Officially registered as a non-profit association in 2009, our organization has undertaken numerous projects aimed at addressing immediate needs and promoting sustainable development. These past projects reflect our commitment to strengthening local communities, enhancing cooperation, and creating long-term positive impact across Lebanon.
