The Phoenix Center for Lebanese Studies (PCLS), founded in 2008 in the Holy Spirit University of Kaslik, is a multidisciplinary space devoted to all fields related to Lebanon.

The objectives of the PCLS are three-fold:

• Information Resources: establishing an analytical and thematic database covering all the fields related to Lebanese studies and forming archival collections that belonged to individuals or institutions
• Research: establishing at the same time interdisciplinary and international programs and initiatives, contributing to the development of knowledge on Lebanese culture and thoughts
• Scientific Diffusion: promoting Lebanese studies, in Lebanon and abroad, and developing activities such as colloquiums, publications, participation in different forums and exchanges through scholarships, partnerships with national and international universities and institutions.
