In light of the International Day of Non-Violence, URDA restates its commitment to the protection of vulnerable populations in Lebanon through its protection sector which aims at empowering and protecting women and children from any infringements on their rights.
URDA condemns all forms of violence against women and girls as a violation of the enjoyment of human rights and strives to protect them regardless of their nationality or religion.
The protection department at URDA strives to apply the rule of law to alleviate all pains across all age groups. Much of URDA’s women empowerment activities and child protection activities are a protection wall against human-trafficking, psychological and physical abuse and assault including sexual exploitation.
