Lebanon stands at the edge of transformation. It has two choices: continue down the path of patriarchal stagnation and exclusion, or embrace a new future where women lead alongside men in shaping a stronger, more equitable Lebanon. #Politics4Her #Lebanon #WomensRights #Feminist #Feminism #WomenInLeadership

My latest article is now live on Politics4Her! "The system was not meant to protect women in Palestine, but to break them." Women and girls in Gaza are trapped in an unrelenting cycle of suffering—denied not only the right to safety but also the dignity of basic healthcare. Hospitals are overwhelmed, supplies are running out, and expectant mothers are forced to give birth under unimaginable conditions. In times of war, women’s bodies become battlefields, and in Gaza, this has never been more evident. This article explores the devastating impact of the war on women and girls in Gaza, from the destruction of healthcare facilities to the skyrocketing rates of sexual violence, and the erasure of reproductive rights in a region already grappling with deep-seated inequalities.

In 3 months Sudan will reach 2 years of war. That is 2 years of famine, genocide, under-nutrition, gender-based violence, and so much more. While the Sudanese Army and the UAE-backed Rapid Support Forces (RSF) continue to fight, civilians have paid the ultimate price. It is vital that attention is paid to the war and genocide in Sudan. The UN has labeled this as the world’s worst displacement crisis. Politics4Her stands with the Sudanese people, who have long had to advocate and fight for themselves.

Women in Belarus continue to fight for their rights despite Lukashenko’s victory. His regime has suppressed protests, silenced activists, and ignored calls for gender equality. But Belarusian women remain at the forefront of the resistance, demanding freedom, democracy, and basic human rights. #belarus #politics #womensrights #humanrights #europe #easterneurope

In just under three weeks of re-entering office, Trump has issued countless executive orders that threaten people’s human rights, dismantle international relations, and pose major repercussions for communities that are marginalized and for global stability and democratic institutions. The culmination of Trump’s harmful policies, executive orders, and authoritarian ideologies unveils a long-term strategy of exclusion, one that dictates who he believes truly belongs in the United States. Politics4Her calls for the fight against white supremacy, systemic oppression, and bigotry. #Politics4Her #Feminism #WomensRights #DonaldTrump #US #HumanRights
