The organizers of the New Arab Woman Forum announced Friday that their 7th conference will be on Feb. 26 in the Four Seasons Hotel in Beirut.
NAWF’s Executive Chair and Founder Nadine Abou Zaki made the announcement at a news conference at the same hotel, in the presence of MP Bahia Hariri.
“For the 7th year, NAWF will bring together a distinguished group of speakers and participants from both genders from the Arab world and internationally, including ministers and senior public officials, business leaders, social entrepreneurs, experts, journalists, heads of NGO and many other personalities,” Abou Zaki said.
Hariri praised Abou Zaki and the organizers for sustaining the “successful initiative” over the year, saying it should be a model for the rest world to follow.
“Today, we have gone beyond gender equality. We do not desire anymore that women become like men because women entrepreneurs from Lebanon and the Arab world represent our national and Arab model,” Hariri said.
“Thus, other people should get inspired by the purity, faith and entrepreneurship of women and young girls from Lebanon and the Arab World.”
NAWF is organized by Al Iktissad Wal Aamal Group and Al Hasnaa Magazine.
Raouf Abou Zaki, Executive Director of Al Iktissad Wal Aamal Group, a co-organizer of NAWF, said the fact that the conference has been organized for the seventh year in a row is a clear demonstration of its outstanding success.
