More than 100 women, and representative of major media outlets in Lebanon participated in the Nationality Campaign General Assembly that was held on January 4th. The event was organised to review the Campaign's activities, achievements and challenges encountered during 2012, to celebrate the graduation of concerned women from a series of leadership and political participation training workshops organised jointly with the Women Learning Partnership and to plan for the Campaign's activities in 2013.
The General Assembly noted that 2013 calls for stepping up activities and pressure especially in view of the upcoming parliamentary elections. A small working group with representatives from all the regions was set up to follow-up the planning and implementation of various advocacy actions.
