This TV spot was used in a national campaign in legislative elections in Lebanon in 2003. In this video clip, a Lebanese Journalist, Giselle Khoury, calls on women to be active in political sphere. The video is in Arabic with the script translated into English.
“It is illogical to think that only 1.5% of the Lebanese Parliament is represented by women while almost 54% of the Lebanese population is women. They should never forget that democracy does not exist without women’s rights.”
