Find out what Eedama's team has been up to in the past few months.
Women Led Startup Training (With LLWB)
Eedama was approached by the Lebanese League for Women in Business to develop a social entrepreneurship training program for women led startups with positive social impact. Eedama's team in Lebanon developed the content, and the actual training started on 29 June 2020. The program kicked off in Tripoli for 4 weeks, and it is starting now in Chtaura in parallel.
Won a New Project: “Crisis Management” - Berytech
Eedama won another project, thanks with LLWB, who have been happy with Eedama’s work, and directed Berytech (a startup incubator in Beirut) towards Eedama for a project related to resilience in times of crisis, especially environmental crisis.The project consists of three training days, and will last for a whole year, as there will be monthly coaching sessions.Sustainable Architecture Competition
Eedama recently submitted to an architecture competition for the Environmental Agency of Abu Dhabi called “MEGA DUNES ECOLODGES - ABU DHABI”. Teams were asked to design lodges that were to operate in a sustainable manner, do not disturb the surrounding environment, and allow visitors to observe oryx’s closely. The client preferred a design that looked like “bubbles”, therefore, Eedama’s team created the solar domes idea. These lodges operate completely off grid using the solar cells on their exterior.
Bidding on Majid Al Futtaim (MAF) Project
Eedama was asked to bid on an Educational Content Development project for Majid Al Futaim. We will be developing content on 4 different sustainable topics for two different age groups that will be later on delivered by MAF personnel. Our mission is to offer the content with a TOT (Training of Trainers) on the related topics.
