Organizational Structure of National Council for Economic and Social Development

The Council of Ministers approved the organizational structure for the National Council for Economic and Social Development, establishing its governance framework with a Board of Trustees, International Advisory Committee, Director General, and six technical departments covering economic development, community development, planning, institutional development, HR, and administrative affairs. The structure formalizes the Council's mandate to propose legislative reforms, commission economic studies, and coordinate development programs.

This decision creates a formal institutional architecture for economic and social policy coordination in Libya. The inclusion of an International Advisory Committee and an International Cooperation Office signals openness to foreign input on development priorities. However, the Council's actual influence depends on funding, Board composition, and relationships with line ministries — none of which are detailed here. For investors, this represents potential future engagement channels but no immediate operational impact.
