Jabal Moussa was designated a UNESCO Man and Biosphere Reserve in 2009. The evolution since then has been tremendous, due to the efforts of the Association for the Protection of Jabal Moussa (APJM) and its faithful partners, ranging from locals, to national donors and international organizations.

 

Looking back at 2013, one realizes that, in spite of the insecure political and economical situation, Jabal Moussa has had its most successful year so far: widely campaigning for wildlife conservation, initiating efficient reforestation activities, actively enhancing the welfare of local communities.
