The role of media in changing female stereotypes
17-7-2019
As part of ongoing consultations to present its goals and achievements within the national strategy for women, the National Commission for Lebanese Women (NCLW) headed by Claudine Aoun Rukuz, held a round table yesterday with journalists at its Hazmieh premises. On the occasion, Rukuz stressed the fundamental role the media plays in the struggle to advance the status of Lebanese women and change the stereotypes, as well as enact the necessary legislative reforms to secure their rights. Among such reforms, Rukuz maintained, is ratification of a law that bans child marriage, endorsement of the right of the Lebanese mother married to non-Lebanese to confer nationality to her children, and amendment of Law 293 on the protection of women and family members from domestic violence.
