CSR issue 5: Challenging Power: Gender and Social Justice in the Middle East - Introduction

The present issue is the culmination of more than two years of work. During this time, our editorial team and our writers living in Lebanon faced countless disruptions to our normal working environments, beginning with the October 2019 Thawra; the COVID-19 pandemic and the government-enforced lockdowns beginning in early 2020; and the crippling economic and political crisis that has left Lebanon a shell of its former self.

Civil Society Review issue 5 - Challenging Power: Gender and Social Justice in the Middle East

A further strength of this issue is the diversity with which authors use the terms “gender” and “feminist,” drawing attention to the ways that such terms are not “neutral;” rather, they are historically specific and signal established power dynamics, especially in the field of international development and humanitarian aid.

This infographic provides an overview of gender actors and interventions in Lebanon*, and aims to highlight gaps and duplications in the sector. This visual shows that while beneficiaries are diverse, some groups remain less targeted such as trans*, policy makers, and persons living with mental health disabilities. At the same time, other categories appear as over-targeted and represented, notably the CSO sector, migrants, displaced individuals and refugees.
