Reflecting on this year’s #InternationalWomensDay, it’s crucial to recognize the progress made toward #GenderEquality in East Asia and Pacific. But disparities remain. Let’s continue to #AccelerateEquality and empower every woman to reach her full potential!

Access to finance is a major challenge for many women-owned SMEs across the 🌏.
To me, #AccelerateEquality means more women entrepreneurs can access capital. I believe that investing in women, like female entrepreneurs, is an investment in our future. #IWD2024 #InvestInWomen

انتخابي رئيسا لمحكمة العدل الدولية مسؤولية كبرى في تحقيق العدالة الدولية واعلاء القانون الدولي. وأول ما يحضر إلى ذهني ايضاً في هذه اللحظة هو همي الدائم ان تعود مدينتي بيروت، أماََ للشرائع كما هو لقبها، وان ننجح كلبنانيين في إقامة دولة القانون في بلادنا وان يسود العدل بين أبنائه.
