Given its members’ expertise in water resources monitoring and ecosystem management, LCWE is well-positioned to serve as an effective partner under Thematic Area 2. This is evidenced by its strong capacity to implement advanced monitoring techniques, including in-situ measurements with diverse field instruments and portable devices, as well as its extensive use of satellite-based technologies to generate hydroclimatic datasets and drought-related indices. The center also demonstrates high proficiency in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for spatial data processing and analysis. Furthermore, LCWE has significant experience in capacity building through training programs and workshops targeting vulnerable communities and farmers to promote sustainable water management practices. It is also actively engaged in the implementation of nature-based solutions, including phytoremediation, constructed wetlands, ecosystem restoration, and soil erosion control. In addition, the center contributes to circular and sustainable agriculture by developing alternative animal feed resources derived from locally available materials such as agricultural by-products, agro-industrial residues, algae, and insects, thereby reducing reliance on conventional feed inputs. Moreover, LCWE applies advanced remote and non-invasive ICT-based technologies, including sensors, drones, and satellite systems, for precision crop monitoring. These systems enable early detection of plant diseases and pest infestations and provide real-time alerts, facilitating timely and targeted interventions that reduce chemical inputs and minimize crop losses. In recognition of its scientific and operational role, LCWE has been designated by the UNESCO Ecohydrology Programme to manage a UNESCO Ecohydrology Demonstration Site in Lebanon.
