IWSAW best video competition to end violence against women

On the occasion of the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence, the Center for Women at the Economic and Social Committee for West Asia (ESCWA) is planning a series of activities in cooperation with the Institute for Women’s Studies in the Arab World at the Lebanese American University, LAU, the Resource Center for Gender Equality, Abaad, and the UN Entity for Gender Equality-the Regional Office for Arab Countries. The first activity includes a best video competition for young men and women (up to 25 years). Contestants should submit a video log not longer than 30 seconds which answers the question: ‘how can we end violence against women?’ The winner will be hosted on a live program in honor of his/her work. Those wishing to participate are asked to send a link of the video to the IWSAW email: iwsaw@lau.edu.lb by November 25, 2016 the latest. (Al Mustaqbal, November 5, 2016)
