Bala Wasta

Bala Wasta is an initiative founded in regard to every Lebanese citizen who tries to segregate all forms of connections from the hiring process in the Lebanese job market.

They’re a group of young Lebanese who strive to find a way to achieve their dreams, representing a cause as a social act. The only prerequisite for others to join is to believe in their cause and to comply with their concept of not accepting any job based on a political preference or a religious background.

Their Mission is to:
– Raise public awareness regarding the right of every individual to have a job based on their qualifications, skills and merits. Every applicant should have an equal opportunity to experience and succeed in a certain work place away from any form of favoritism and discrimination both political and religious.
– Raise the political players’ awareness regarding the importance of amending their political agendas and stop facilitating jobs to their supporters with no regards to their actual skills and knowledge.
– Transform the actual “brain drain” into a “brain gain”
