Many initiatives are set up in Lebanon to attract the interest of children and young adults in the field of technology, including conferences, summer and after-school engineering camps, workshops to build robots and robotics competitions.
Lebanese children, like their counterparts around the world, are fascinated with robots, often made famous through popular TV shows. In March, 1,200 Lebanese children from 60 different schools participated in the annual National Education Robotics Day (NERD) competition. The competition was established in 2010.
