After hosting successful programs in 2008 and 2009, we convened in our third Corporate Ambassadors Program (CAP) in 2011, an initiative which brings small delegations of international businesswomen and senior executives to the Middle East and North Africa for business training and knowledge exchange. The Program addresses national trend of family-owned businesses and focuses on strategies for management and succession This was one of our major achievements since it brought together more than 200 insightful professionals and inspiring speakers gathered at the Suliman S. Olayan School of Business at the American University of Beirut (AUB) to discuss the difficulties of leading a family business and the challenges inherent in creating strategies for succession and management. This event was held in partnership with the Middle East and North Africa Business women’s Network (MENA BWN), Vital Voices Global Partnership, and Exxon Mobil. The 2011 Corporate Ambassador Program proved to be a powerful forum for the exchange of ideas. LLWB’s commitment to creating brighter prospects for women, their families, and the community at large, was clearly evident at this event. In the same year also established a LLWB chapter in the Bekaa that is highly active. The Branch offers business training and other opportunities to women in rural areas. Also, the LLWB was a founding member of the MENA Businesswomen Network. The MENA BWN was incorporated in the Kingdom of Bahrain in 2010 and represents over 2,500 individual members with associations in 10 countries. Its mission is to promote the advancement of women, enhance economic and professional growth and contribute to the development of individual members and the organizations to which they belong, resulting in progress and prosperity for families and communities in the MENA region and the world at large. The MENA BWN has supported over 20,000 men and women through targeted programs, workshops and skills building workshops that have resulted in the creation of over 500 new companies, expanded business-to-business connections and increased company revenue.

Mission and Objectives

Notre mission est de promouvoir la Paix durable, en sensibilisant les populations et en éduquant la jeunesse à la paix par les valeurs structurantes du sport.
Si les responsables politiques et sportifs sont de plus en plus conscients des valeurs pacifiques véhiculées par le sport, et de ses vertus dans le cadre de la prévention et de la résolution des conflits, ils ne maximisent pas encore assez le potentiel du sport dans ce domaine.
Confrontés à des situations complexes, ils éprouvent souvent des difficultés à mettre en place les synergies nécessaires pour régler les problèmes.
Peace and Sport se propose donc d’agir pour que le sport devienne le point d’appui d’actions politiques concertées, efficaces et adaptées, et devienne ainsi un outil essentiel au service de la paix.
Pour y parvenir, Peace and Sport établit une coopération internationale entre les acteurs politiques, le monde du sport et les acteurs sociaux et économiques.

Main Projects / Activities

L'action de Peace and Sport se décompose en 5 axes :
- Forum International Annuel et Régional : l'ensemble des acteurs peuvent se rencontrer pour échanger leurs expériences et renforcer leur coopération
- Projets sur Zone : mise en place et le suivi de programmes sur le terrain
- La création d'une plateforme de coopération internationale à l'aide d'un Centre de Ressources
- Peace and Sport Awards : récompensent des initiatives qui ont fait la différence sur le terrain
- Champion for Peace : collectif de sportifs qui souhaitent s'investir à divers niveaux pour des programmes de paix par le sport
