26-1-2016

The National Commission for Lebanese Women (NCLW) met yesterday at its premises in the Beirut suburb of Baabda to evaluate last year’s achievements and to discuss its priorities for 2016. The meeting led by NCLW vice-chairperson, Randa Berri, with the participation of PM’s wife, Lama Tamam Salam, was devoted to the discussion of proposed priorities, notably the adoption of a national work plan guiding the implementation of the UN Council Resolution 1325/2000 on women, peace and security and the promotion of knowledge on women’s human rights among judicial staff workers. NCLW also tackled a number of issues, including: regulating the work of migrant women domestic workers, publishing information related to the final recommendations issued by the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discriminations Against Women (CEDAW), women’s political participation and the right of the Lebanese women to grant nationality to their children. In conclusion, the Commission ratified the 2015 financial report and approved the 2016 budget.
