Maharat is a catalyst, defending and advancing the development of democratic societies governed by the values of freedom of expression and respect for human rights.
Maharat advances the societal and political conditions that enhance freedom of expression and access to information, both online and offline. Maharat engages and equips a progressive community in Lebanon and the MENA region with the skills and knowledge necessary to create change.
Despite the fact that Lebanon is considered an incubator for startups, according to a study published by Maharat Foundation by the end of 2018, but few media startups reach incubators and business accelerators.
