The Zovighian Partnership
ZP is a Beirut-based data-driven social investment platform dedicated to research and data-led planning and policy development. It was set up by Lebanese entrepreneur and philanthropist Lynn Zovighian and her father, Michel, in 2013. The family also has the ZP Public Office, which amplifies the voices of crisis-affected communities in international diplomacy and tribunals. This entity works closely with disempowered groups in Lebanon, with the Yazidis in Iraq, and has been a key voice of advocacy for the indigenous Armenians of Artsakh Nagorno-Karabakh.
