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!


Mary Najam is a 36-year-old from Ain el Rimaneh who holds a degree in Biology from the Lebanese University in Beirut and a certificate for teaching high school biology and physics. She is a full-time high school physics teacher. Mary’s immediate motivation to learn English came from a trip to Australia. “I was visiting my aunt for 3 months, but I couldn’t do anything alone. Simple things like shopping, taking the bus were very difficult. It was embarrassing.” Mary’s class has given her confidence and goodwill. “I’m no longer afraid to speak English.”
