TunisiaAmbassador of the European Union Ralph Tarraf visits the Beqaa
Ambassador of the European Union Ralph Tarraf visited Northern Beqaa on Monday 16 December to meet with local authorities and communities, and to visit projects benefitting the people in the region.
Ambassador Tarraf visited Al Qaa, where he inaugurated a hill-lake, part of a project funded by the European Union and implemented by the Economic Social Fund for Development (ESFD), which aims at revitalizing local economy in Lebanon.
“We are aware of how much a stable water supply influences the economic opportunities and the daily life in this area.” Ambassador Tarraf said. “Together with local authorities and our partners, we are improving the water infrastructure, creating job opportunities, strengthening the agricultural sector, and ensuring water availability for all. It is our priority, as European Union, to address the needs of the local population.”
