The National Education Council (NEC) is a proposed Lebanese public, autonomous, and independent organism that serves the primary function of upholding formal education as a high quality public good and a significant national investment for the 21st century and beyond. The Council would work in accordance with an explicitly spelled out national policy for education and development in order to serve a clear national educational vision with the highest quality standards possible. This document succinctly provides the rationale for NEC and proposes its mandate and structure. (July 2019)
