TunisiaThe EU-funded project DAWRIC organises two events on gender equality in Lebanon
Last week, on Saturday September 29, the EU-funded project “Direct Action for Women – Reform, Inclusion and Confidence” (DAWRIC) organised two events in Lebanon.
The first event was a training on gender equality in Padova Hotel, Sin El Fil, where municipal council representatives met.
