This issue of Tatimma focuses on the question of civil rights and liberties in Lebanon. Whilst it is usually considered that civil freedoms in Lebanon are light-years ahead of other Arab countries. Yet this state of liberties appears to be more a facade for a discriminatory system which limits the liberties of Lebanese citizens, specifically Lebanese women, refugees, foreign workers to name a few.
The Syrian crisis continues to provoke an ever increasing displacement across the border into Lebanon. According to the UNHCR, more than 569,000 Syrian refugees are now receiving protection and assistance from the Lebanese government, the UN and NGO’s. With no end to the crisis in sight, the number of Syrian refugees entering Lebanon is expected to rise to one million by the end of the year, posing a significant challenge to hosting communities around Lebanon. DRC and its partners continue to provide essential services to meet the needs of refugees and locals.

تواصلت خلال عام 2012 حالات الاعتداء على العمال السوريين في أنحاء مختلفة من لبنان، من البقاع إلى الجبل ومن الشمال إلى الجنوب مرورا بالعاصمة وضواحيها. وتشي الحالات التي تم رصدها، أن الاعتداءات ضد العمال الأجانب، والسوريين بشكل خاص، ليست بحالات فردية ومعزولة بل تأتي ضمن سياق عام من التحريض العنصري ضد هذه الفئة بالتحديد. وقد رصد "المرصد اللبناني لحقوق العمال والموظفين" في هذا الإطار 29 حالة عنف موثقة ضد عمال سوريين، من خطف وعنف جسدي وسلب. هذا، وبقي المعتدين في معظم الحالات مجهولي الهوية، مما حال دون سوقهم من قبل السلطات اللبنانية إلى العدالة فضلاً عن تقصير الحكومة في اتخاذ التدابير التي من شأنها...

In cooperation with Oxfam GB, and with the support of the European Union, Kafa - Enough Violence and Exploitation works since 2009 on developing strategies and interventions with men and boys to end gender-based violence through the white ribbon campaign.
On the occasion of the 16 days of activism to end violence against women Kafa considers that men should be involved in limiting and ending gender based violence, as standing against patriarchal society will also reflect positively on men and society in general.

The Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) are a set of eight specific objectives for enhancing the human condition, including goals of poverty reduction and improvement in education, gender equality, health, and environmental quality among others.
Conflicts, abuses, repression, and human rights violations always leave a bitter taste when proper mourning to achieve personal or communal healing is cutoff by indifference, and politics of amnesia.
This edition of the Global Education Digest (GED) explores the changing patterns in gender and schooling throughout the formal education system – from primary to tertiary education levels.
Months after the war, the Gaza Strip remains a disaster zone. Families are in despair, as hundresds of them had their homes totally destroyed and do not have proper shelter to endure Gaza's conditions.
