Our Vision is a fully inclusive world where justice, peace, human dignity, freedom, and care for the environment are promoted and sustained by women’s leadership.
We value the collective power of women and girls, through self-determination in all areas of life: leadership which improves the status of women, full participation of women at all decision levels, and a life without violence for all.
YWCA – Beirut is a member of the National Council of Lebanon YWCA, which currently includes nine branches in different regions of Lebanon and is affiliated to the World YWCA.
