With @fiftyfiftylb @unwomen & 🇱🇧 MPs #ثورة_النساء_في_السياسة

#Lebanon among 1st in Arab world to give women the vote. A pioneer of progress then.

Today, only 6% women MPs when regional average is 18%, some over 30%.

🇱🇧 should be topping the league, not trailing near bottom.

نظمّت جمعية "زرّ بيكي" حملة توعية لمساحات آمنة للنساء والفتيات في #لبنان على كورنيش عين المريسة.

وكانت ريبيكا "بيكي" دايكس، مسؤولة برامج في لبنان في وزارة التنمية البريطانية، قد تعرّضت للاغتصاب والقتل منذ 6 سنوات في #بيروت على يد سائق أجرة.

و "زرّ بيكي" هو جهاز إنذار ذعر صغير وخفيف الوزن وقابل للتشبيك، تقوم والدة "بيكي" بالتبرّع به للنساء مجاناً، يحتوي على إنذار يخيف المهاجمين وينبّه المارّة من أيّ عمل غريب.
