Emerging researchers program:

This program is a unique opportunity for social science students and fresh graduates to participate in a comprehensive research mission to develop organisational and technological solutions for Lebanese municipalities and state institutions.
Skilled researchers collaborate on designing and implementing many features of our exciting new
initiatives, from high-level analytical work to on-the-ground application and engagement with municipal members and citizens.
Researchers work primarily on a task-based approach, with priority for delivery more than “clocking-
in hours”. They work and report to the Chief Operations Officer and each other collaboratively. They
are guided by academic advisors in world-leading institutions. Accepted applicants are provided with
basic compensation for food and transportation. All emerging researchers are expected to work with
a high level of rigor and professionalism in order to close on all work streams and facilitate
communication, creativity, and delivery on requests. They are guided and further trained on all key
functions outlined below.
