Update: As Samah has mentioned in the comments below, it seems there's another more credible syndicate for graphic designers in Lebanon. I've also received an email from them, it's in french but I'll post a part of it for your information:
I've been wanting to blog about this for a while now but thought I'd do some research prior to the post. Surprisingly enough, there was little found. I even sent an email inquiring about more information but haven't received any reply yet. So without further ado, please meet The Lebanese Graphic Design Syndicate!
Good news is we now have one. Bad news is I wouldn't be so proud to join!
According to Icograda (yes, we're listed in Icograda):
I mean, look at that logo! I'm in love with it! I've never seen such a smart, harmonious, typographic composition portraying what our world is truly about: the labyrinth of communication! And that website! Such dreamy horizons, smooth gradients and perfect slideshows! If there's one thing I've learned as a designer it's that no website should claimed as such if it doesn't have a weather report and a calendar. Plus, you can tell how well a website is doing by how much advertising space it has. So there you go!
Nuff said. I guess I will be waiting for that email to consider joining the syndicate. If ever. And if any of you readers is already a member I would love for you to share that experience with us!

Well, to tell you the truth, I've been waiting for so long to be assessed by a force as creative as the LGDS! Now I can seriously hope for a better environment for us designers.The Lebanese Graphic Design Syndicate is founded in 1976, reformed and restructured in 2010 to become the only official syndicate and professional forum for graphic designers in Lebanon, certified from the Lebanese ministry of interior and remunerated from the Lebanese government.
The syndicate is assessing the quality of graphic designers while at the same time establishing a better environment for them, by tapping into the professional interests of communication designers, Creating a developed market, Enhancing the design skills and backgrounds, Design policies concerning governmental and public matters, Developing the creative climate.

Hi Niss.
Actually, there's a graphic designers', illustrators and cartoonists'syndicate:
S.P.G.I.L. | Syndicat des Professionnels du Graphisme et de l’Illustration au Liban
The one you wrote that post about is a new "invented" one by Halim Choueiry (who's got some connections with icograda, among others).
The guy thought he would create his own syndicate... as I see here it isn't quite a big hit.
Anyway, I am a member of S.P.G.I.L. and soon there's gonna be some serious restructuring which you and all other fellow graphic designers will take part in.
For now, let's stick to creating, will tell you more all about it when I see you.
Man that's great news! how can one become a member?
This blog post was the second search result when I googled "Syndicate graphic design lebanon". The first was Icograda (to prove Samah's point).
Thanks Salah and Nisrine for publishing this.
I'm glad I read the post before calling LGDS!
Indeed Nisrine such a creative logo and functional website for creative people. They shall be the example and muse for lebanese creative people... here
Hanane! Tell me what happens if you contact SPGIL. I still haven't registered in any syndicate and I'm still skeptic about the relevance of doing so! :)
