The MedSNAIL project's goal is to protect and promote local agri-food products that are strongly linked to the territories and their respective communities in order to preserve the agrobiodiversity, empower local farmers and promote more sustainable rural development. For this reason, the Lebanese partner, the American University of Beirut, has identified this product, in order to raise awareness of its quality and benefits and rekindle public interest in it, while supporting small local producers.

The American University of Beirut presents the following product in the frame of the "Heritage Guardians" campaign: the egg plant compote. In this video we can know the procedure of makking this ancient compote in this mediterranean area from Lebanon.
