UAF launches the Beirut Crisis Fund
|
|
UAF has launched the Beirut Crisis Fund to support the women and trans activists working on the frontlines in Lebanon!
Now is the moment to stand with the people of Lebanon. As they navigate through the aftermath of the explosion in Beirut, feminist activists are rising up and demanding change to reshape their society. The recent explosion in Beirut – one of the most powerful explosions in history – has exacerbated the multiple crises facing Lebanon, from political corruption and the economic crash, to the COVID-19 pandemic.
