Women's Rights
“Min Haqqiha” App Launch
FNF and the Lebanese Organization of Defending Equality and Rights (LOUDER) have joined forces to empower women and girls across Lebanon, through our “Min Haqqiha” initiative
What is Min Haqqiha?
Min Haqqiha is a user-friendly mobile application that introduces women in Lebanon to their rights and identifies the areas of gender discrimination and violations in an interactive manner. To empower women, this app aims at raising awareness around women's rights and makes such information more accessible to the public in general, and to women in particular.

- Free, accessible, and interactive educational tools and quizzes that work offline.
