The principles that guide LNA's political project.

01 / Sovereignty

National Sovereignty and State Authority

Exclusive Monopoly on Arms

LNA advocates for a state that holds the exclusive right to possess and use weapons, with all military capabilities gradually integrated into the Lebanese Army under a unified national strategy.

Constitutional Authority

The state must exercise full sovereignty over its territory, institutions, and decision-making processes, free from internal or external interference.

Independent Foreign Policy

Foreign relations should be guided by national interest and mutual respect for sovereignty, avoiding sectarian-based regional axes.

02 / Democracy

Democracy, Pluralism, and Accountability

Effective Participation

All citizens must be able to participate effectively in political decision-making through fair electoral laws and proper representation.

Transparency

Citizens must have free access to information so they can hold public institutions and traditional sectarian leadership accountable.

Rule of Law

The constitution is a social contract that must ensure equality before the law, supported by an independent and impartial judiciary.

03 / Justice

Social Justice and the Welfare State

Fair Wealth Distribution

LNA promotes a developed economy that serves the majority rather than a 1% elite, through fair wealth distribution, progressive taxation, and anti-poverty policies.

Universal Rights

Free public education and comprehensive healthcare are basic rights for all citizens and residents.

Balanced Development

Through administrative decentralisation, LNA seeks fair distribution of resources and services across all Lebanese regions.

04 / Citizenship

Secularism and Citizenship

Separation of Religion and State

LNA supports the transition to a secular, democratic state where religion is separated from politics.

Equal Citizenship

The law must treat all citizens as equal individuals rather than members of sectarian groups, while protecting freedom of belief and worship.

05 / Feminism

Political Feminism

Transformative Methodology

For LNA, feminism is not just a call for representation. It is a methodology for political struggle.

Redefining Leadership

The party seeks to replace patriarchal models with collaboration, empathy, and long-term planning.

Intersectionality

LNA recognises that gender oppression is linked with racism, classism, sectarianism, and homophobia.

06 / Environment

Environmental Protection

Sustainable Growth

LNA views environmental policy as necessary for achieving socio-economic rights and protecting shared public goods.

Accountability for Violations

The party calls for holding all parties responsible for environmental damage and integrating environmental protection into modern citizenship.
