Welcome!

Since February 2008, the TWE program has worked with diverse partners across Lebanon to:
1) Empower women in their communities, to help women improving access to employment and education, and to enable women to support their children in their studies,
2) Develop civil society in peripheral regions by boosting local associations, raising their visibility, and helping them meet the needs of their communities,
3) Create a network of women and NGO’s with a shared commitment to increase their opportunities through learning English.

Meet TWE!


Nahla Rifai is a 49-year-old French teacher from Baalbek who also owns an artisan clothing shop. She has a degree in history from the Lebanese University in Zahle. TWE has made a substantial difference in her daily life. “At my shop I have to speak to tourists in English. Before I could only speak French. Two weeks ago I had two people from Holland who only spoke English. I sold them a jacket and towel!”
