Despite ranking on 68th out of 146 on educational attainment, Lebanon ranks on 144th on political empowerment according to the 2023 Global Gender Index. When we talk political empowerment, it's not only limited to parliamentarian seats, but also to actively lead administrative offices and local politics. Why is that? Why in the year of 2024 we still score one of the lowest on political empowerment? The document analysis the barriers and challenges into 5 sections from legal, to political, social and cultural, economic and financial challenges. The document clearly defines all the challenges and the barriers that women in Lebanon face when and if they wish to be politically active. If we are really looking to have women in Lebanon be political empowered it is evident that we need to urgently work on legislative laws that are discriminatory against women and to adopt quota system that ensures representation in women in politics and lastly to amplify and intensify the advocacy for women political participation and promoting gender equality and challenging societal norms.
📢 Our Third Outcome Document is Out! This document summarizes key findings and recommendations from our third workshop, focused on the economic and political empowerment of women. It underscores the importance of implementing a quota system to ensure women's representation—a temporary but necessary measure to promote gender equality in political participation. 📄 Read the findings and recommendations via the link here: https://lnkd.in/dCBZ3brC This document was produced as part of our project with the Embassies of Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Sweden, supported by the Nordic Council of Ministers.

Did You Know? Toxic masculinity in Zimbabwe hinders young women's leadership by perpetuating harmful gender norms and reinforcing patriarchal structures. It expects men to dominate, silencing women's voices and limiting their potential. This toxic culture normalizes misogyny, violence, and gender-based violence (GBV), creating a barrier to gender equality. To break this cycle, we must engage men in discussions about gender equality and encourage them to challenge harmful norms. By doing so, we can create a society where young women can thrive and lead without constraints.
