Advocacy training on gender & trade
19-6-2019
The chairperson of the Supreme Council of Arab Women Organization (AWO), head of the National Commission for Lebanese Women (NCLW), Claudine Aoun Rukuz, opened on June 17 the national training session on ‘advocacy skills on gender and trade’. The event was organized by NCLW and the Center of Arab Woman for Training and Research, CAWTAR, as part of the “Promoting Women’s Empowerment to Achieve Equality in the Middle East and the MENA region through Gender Mainstreaming in Economic Policies and Trade Agreements” project with the support of the Swedish International Development Cooperation. This came in parallel with similar workshops held in Algeria, Jordan, Egypt, Morocco and Tunisia. The aim of the two-day workshop is to provide participants with the required tools and knowledge in evidence-based advocacy for change to enhance women's economic participation and access to trade markets nationally, regionally and internationally. Noting that, it complements the regional training course on the same subject held in Beirut last March, and the regional seminar on “Documentation and Strategic Planning” held in Tunisia this past January.
