On the occasion of the International Women’s Day, IDRAAC organized an awareness event with RDFL with the support of HelpAge International

The awareness session highlighted the importance of Women’s Rights & Women’s Mental Health and Wellbeing.

Following the welcome speech from RDFL by Ms. Sarah Al Outa and an overview of Women’s Rights, Ms. Hiba Shaer from HelpAge International addressed the audience followed by an interactive discussion with Dr. Aimee Karam from IDRAAC who gave an overview of the importance of Women’s mental health and answered several questions from the audience during the last part of the event.

This event was an opportunity to join the global movement #BreakTheBias and forge #women_equality at different levels.

This session is part of a series of community awareness sessions supported by HelpAge planned in the coming months!
