NNA - The National Commission for Lebanese Women (NCLW) launched an awareness campaign in partnership with the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) on violence in the law against women and girls entitled "Failing to amend the laws to recognize your rights is a violence against you”, #Stop_violence_in_the_law

This campaign sheds light on the unfair and discriminatory legal provisions to the rights of women and girls which remain unamended, and which require amending in order to protect and recognize women as full citizens, through a unified civil law for personal status, a law that prohibits the marriage of minors, in addition to a law that recognizes the right of Lebanese women to pass on their nationality to their children.

This awareness campaign is implemented by the National Commission for Lebanese Women in partnership with GIZ and funded by the German government.
