The Government of Lebanon current reform
agenda includes a number of proposals to expand reform
efforts, as well as to introduce effective and efficient
sector policies and expenditure programs. The draft program
also includes key proposals to improve Lebanon's

articulated and supported by adequate resources. The speed
and strength of this process are critical for avoiding a
severe deterioration in public finances and returning the
Lebanese economy to a path of growth. This report sets out
an overall framework starting, in Section I, with a
discussion of the prevailing macro/fiscal challenges and the
complexities added to it by the hostilities. Section II
presents the elements of a reform program to promote
recovery and sustainable growth. Section III discusses the
role of donors in providing financial and technical
assistance in support of the Government's program.
Section IV reiterates the importance of building consensus
around the reform agenda. The report is based on detailed
technical analysis of economic, social and infrastructure
