Through an experience based pedagogy, the participants to Jibal projects are at the center of the activity, both in terms of creating content and producing knowledge. Our activities aim at promoting change in attitudes and behaviors, and not only at cognitive level by transmitting information. Through applied research projects, the NGO produces analysis and studies on different topics she covers.

JIBAL stands for ‘Association for environmental and social justice in Lebanon’ because we believe that a key for a harmonious world is the fair sharing of our environment, of natural resources as well as basic and equal recognition and redistribution of wealth.

Jibal works in close collaboration with the UAE-Lebanon social enterprise Eedama, with the French NGO Tabadol and with the Lebanese alternative news website Mashallah news.

This course is open to people who want to improve their understanding of stereotypes and power dynamics in the context of journalism and media and who would like to find ways to do more just and equitable reporting and writing. During seven 2-hour sessions over the course of seven weeks, participants get the opportunity to locate and understand stereotypes and power dynamics, reflect on their own perspectives and positions of privilege and/or oppression, look critically at media production, and, through workshops on pitching and creative writing, explore new ways of writing and telling stories.
