Oxfam has been working in Lebanon since 1993 providing humanitarian assistance to vulnerable people affected by conflict, and promoting economic development, good governance at a local and national level, and women’s rights through Oxfam’s work with partners. Oxfam also works with local partners to contribute to the protection and empowerment of marginalized women and men.  

Oxfam in Lebanon, with the support of Marsa sexual health center, Lebanese Order of midwives (LOM) , Akkarouna and  Society for Inclusion and Development in Communities and Care for All (SIDC) are   implementing a five year , Global Affairs Canada (GAC) funded project entitled “Power to Choose – Sexual and Reproductive Health Rights (SRHR) for Young Women and Adolescent Girls”. Overall, the project aims to increase the enjoyment of health-related human rights by the most marginalized and vulnerable women and adolescent girls with a primary focus on North Lebanon, and smaller-scale interventions in the Bekaa and South Lebanon. This goal will be achieved mainly through (1) Increased agency of young women and adolescent girls contributing to their equitable use of sexual and reproductive health services and (2) improved provision of gender-responsive, inclusive and accountable sexual and reproductive health services by health care providers for diverse groups of young women and adolescent girls. To a lesser extent the goal is also achieved through (3) improved effectiveness of key stakeholders, particularly women and youth organizations or movements, to advocate for evidence-based health care policies, accountable legal framework, and equitable and inclusive services.
