April 22, 2009

USAID/Lebanon Mission Director Denise A. Herbol spoke at the Lebanese Association of Certified Public Accountants (LACPA), on the occasion of LACPA’s 17^th International Congress on April 22, 2009. This event also marked the launch of a new web portal for the USAID granted LACPA $49,450 for the purpose of creating a tri-lingual web portal for the organization, to help it better serve the Public Accountant profession and improve transparency in its communications with stakeholders and the public at large. The portal features financial and legal rules and regulations, rights and obligations, online legal documentation and an e-library. The project falls within the context of the Transparency and Accountability Grants (TAG) program funded by USAID and implemented by AMIDEAST. Over 150 participants from Lebanon and other neighboring countries attended this event.
