In the dire systemic, economic, financial and social situation that Lebanon is facing, WAD’s aim is to be of support to ease the psychological stress of school children and their mothers.

WAD has opted for therapy through fine art, drama and music to children ages 9 to 11. Here are some pictures of WAD’s ongoing workshops at Mar Elias Btina high School in Beirut.

As for the mothers, they have also participated in psychosocial support sessions in order to help them manage the stressors of daily life. These sessions provide self-care techniques, somatic practice, cognitive therapy skills, as well as advice on how to be there for their children in times of distress.

Here below are some images of past workshops focused on Women Empowerment that WAD has conducted over the past years since its start in 2009.
