JBEIL YWCA - Established in 1992

Current Programs

Membership Activities involve a wide range of ages. This year, the YWCA offered a variety of recreational sessions, in handicrafts, aerobics and children’s programs at low cost to the general public. Social gatherings were also organized to attract new members.

Awareness and community building: in the context of the United Nations International Year for the Culture of Peace – 2000, Jbeil (ancient Byblos) being one of the oldest cities in the world, was selected as one of the foster homes for this event.

Since then, Jbeil YWCA is concentrating its efforts on promoting peace education and a life without violence, in lectures, workshops and gatherings at the YWCA center, around related issues. This is being done in collaboration with the local municipality and UNESCO.
