The members of General Assembly of Imam Sadr Foundation met together on Saturday morning at the Cultural Complex in Tyre at its annual meeting to view the annual report. The Commission was briefed on the status of projects and programs: their tracks, their results and the challenges they face. Development and sustainability methods were also discussed.
Mrs. Rabab Sadr opened the session and welcomed the members of the Board and General Assembly in hopes that the meeting would be an additional occasion to review what has been achieved and agree on the priorities of the next phase. The economic and financial struggles in the region have put pressures on everyone, from individuals to private and public sectors, among which several institutions and NGOs have been a victim of and had to halt some projects and activities to cut back on costs.
During the sessions, a number of department heads presented their yearly reports and their recommendations regarding what they deem necessary to meet this difficult period due to the scarcity of recourses. Presentations included the department of nursing, health centers, early childhood intervention center (ECIL), vocational training, and schools. During the session, many discussions and interventions were proposed to expand the horizons of the next stage, to encourage volunteering among second generation youth, to benefit from the social service program, to encourage graduates to continue their involvement in the work of foundation and to strengthen the image of the society in the local and foreign public opinion.
