About the project
LBIP is a peer-reviewed citizen-science project launched in 2026 after more than a year of careful offline preparation.
The objective of this initiative is to document the biodiversity of Lebanon and build an open-access database of the Lebanese fauna, flora and funga, but also the rich fossil record. By making this information freely available, we aim to support scientific research, education, and conservation efforts.
Through this project and other future activities, we are working on raising awareness and promoting appreciation for our natural heritage.
