In addition, development in its concept and application, whether it was sustainable development, local, rural, urban, became the focal attention of states governments alike, whether those countries are developed or developing countries. For that purpose, those countries have established ministries and research centers to take care of development and even to add university degree related to development.Lebanon has not follow this track, neither in the formulation of designed ministry for development nor in the adding of university specialized degree, also the academic literature, who deals in the subject of development. “Limited number of institutions involved in rural development such as , the establishment of kafalat cooperation, a new investment law that establish the autonomous investment development authority of Lebanon (IDAL), the provision of subsidized credit through a central bank facility, signing trade agreements to expand and liberalize trade with Lebanon’s partners” E/ESCWA/2007/WG.5 26OCTOBER 2007.The research will focus on the concepts of rural development, rural area, analyze the impact of expenditure on solid waste on rural development in TYRE caza.

Introduction and Problem Statement1.1 Introduction Development generally means the improvement of people’s lifestyles through improved education, incomes, skills development and employment.

Due to the important changes in developing and transition countries, rural areas suffer from insecurity of property rights, missing markets, deteriorated infrastructure, unemployment, lack of formal systems of social security, resource degradation and other problems. Rural development faces important challenges concerning economic, social and environmental viability. Growth in the number of households has out-paced population growth (Liu et al, 2003) Such is the case in the Lebanon, where rural lands are being rapidly converted to home sites.
