Libyan Women Forum

Overview

Libyan Women Forum (LWF) is a non-profit local civil society that works towards the empowerment of Libyan women through advocacy, capacity building, and raising awareness of gender-related issues. LWF was established in November 2011 after a diverse group of 21 women expressed a strong desire to effectively participate in the reconstruction phase of post-revolution Libya. LWF started to voice its views hoping to reflect the average Libyan woman’s views.
