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!


Maila El Rafih is a 21-year-old from Bekaa and a psychology student at the Lebanese University in Zahle. “I actually teach English at my village school – the Bekaa school in Rashaya.” Maila decided to enroll with TWE when she found she could not answer an 8th grade student’s question about cooking. “When children ask you something and you say ‘I’ll get you the answer later,’ it’s very hard.” TWE has also affected the way Maila teaches. “The way our teacher teaches itself tells me how to teach and order ideas for others.”
