Country Reports

Lebanon’s Administrative Judiciary and its Implication on the Country’s Rule of Law

by Isabel Henzler Carrascal, Sandy Haddad

What is administrative jurisdiction and why is it important for a country?

Countries in the MENA region currently lack thorough and stable administrative judiciary systems, which in turn reinforces the people’s lack of confidence towards it. Hence, a wave of recent reforms and changes within the administrative judiciary has appeared in order to implement and ensure the proper application of justice, as well as to increase and enhance the effective access to it.

Aiming to highlight the main reform attempts responding to the changing values and concerns within societies of the MENA region, including advocacy plans promoting justice and equality.
