In a CNN video ETV, Egypt reports on the importance education has in Lebanese society. The video specifically focuses on a initive between American business leaders and Lebanese schools known as Partnership for Lebanon. This partnership allows for educational awards to students as well as computers to be supplied to full classrooms of students. One partner is the initive claims that he sees this work as supplying the next modern need for survival, education. Along with the initive a Lebanese journalist shares that regardless of the turmoil in this country the priority for all Lebanese society has been education. She also, states that the schools are starting to meet a higher standard especially within the French, American and Lebanese Universities that are established within the country. I see the Universities as a benefit in that Lebanes children are being educated in a diver manner and that ultimately helps prepare them for a global future.
