About

Outside Lebanon follows what the Lebanese world does outside Lebanon: its communities, its institutions, its routes and its flows. Not Lebanon seen from afar: the diaspora as a system, with its airlines, its money transfer operators, its consulates, its schools and its networks.

What we do

• Every month, we record the prices, fees and wait times that matter to the diaspora, on fixed dates, using a published method.
• We check the information circulating in groups and date every check.
• We explain procedures from start to finish, base by base.
• We compare what happens in Paris, Montreal, Dubai, Lagos and São Paulo.

What we are not

• Not a Lebanese news outlet.
• Not a community, confessional or regional outlet.
• Not an intermediary: we do not organise trips, place students or transfer money.
• Not a political platform.
• Not a service desk: we do not intervene in any individual case.
