Glossary of Political, Legislative and Legal Terms English - Arabic

The Program to Strengthen the Lebanese Parliament through the Development of a Legislative Resource Center in Lebanon \PSLP) is a United States Agency for International Development-funded legislative strengthening program designed to improve administrative support services of the Lebanese Parliament and assist the Parliament in the establishment of a resource center which will serve as a leader in information and training in the Arab world.

SUNY/CID is a leading university-based international development center enhancing the knowledge and practice in the area of governance and policy making. Over the past quarter century, SUNY/CID has provided technical assistance to over thirty parliaments and regional parliamentary associations worldwide.

This Glossary is prepared to provide the staff of the Lebanese Parliament with political, legislative and legal terms that they may use in their everyday work. The Glossary provides an English/Arabic and Arabic/English translation of those terms.
