organizes charitable campaigns to donate various essential services and
products. These initiatives, led by MUBS staff and students, include food,
health services, clothing, medication, and training. To systemize and oversee
more effective dissemination of services and material to the needy, MUBS
established the National Wellness Network that works with local partners to
investigate the local community’s needs, and respond in the most convenient way
to address those needs. MUBS also collaborates with top universities like
Stanford University to utilize educational technology tools to address global
health challenges. The driving force behind this pioneering collaboration is
the understanding that in fragile states and zones of conflict like Lebanon,
humanitarian response inevitably requires close collaboration between local and
international respondents. https://www.facebook.com/mubslebanon/photos/a.231506876938276/2662162103872729/?type=3&theater The
