Provision of Data on The Status of Women and Girls in Lebanon – UN Women

Background

The European Union (EU) Delegation to Lebanon partnered with UN Women to
develop a sector-specific gender analysis (SSGA).  The revision of the EU’s Gender Action Plan in Lebanon comes at a time of multiple overlapping crises – economic, political, public health, and the aftermath of the Beirut port explosion – that disproportionately impact women and girls. The growing insecurity in Lebanon because of the ongoing crises presents an acute threat to the pursuit of a more gender equal society.

Triangle’s Analysis

Triangle’s data gathering focused on the following sectors in the GAP III framework: I) freedom from all forms of gender-based violence (GBV); II) economic and social rights and the empowerment of women; and III) women’s leadership and participation in politics and public life.

Specific attention was given to intersectional analysis, examining the experiences of women and gender minorities in Lebanon based on differences in age, socio-economic background, ability, nationality, legal status, sexual orientation, and gender identity and expression.
