The Association of Lebanese Industrialists, represented by its president, Fadi Gemmayel, and the Women Leaders Council of Lebanon, represented by its president, Madiha Arslan, signed yesterday an MoU which aims at strengthening the role of women in the industrial sector and secure their access to strategic decision making. The MoU also includes provisions for the creation of a joint and effective support group in order to influence public opinion to that effect in addition to organizing special workshops for women executives as well as women working in the industrial sector. Both concerned parties seek to support the mainstreaming of Lebanese women in in the job market as well as providing them with opportunities as employers, executives and employees on the sector. Gemayel further noted that this MoU is guided by the association’s deep belief in the importance of women’s role in society and the need to strengthen this role through providing various forms of support to women and helping them engage with various economic sectors especially the industry. Arslan for her part hoped that the MoU will be the basis for strengthening the role of women in the industrial sector. (Al Mustaqbal, August 14th 2018 )
