Case Study: Reactivating Public Spaces Through Women-Led Community Engagement and Youth Dialogue in Beirut

Reactivating Public Spaces through Women-Led Community Engagement and Youth Dialogue in Beirut documents a joint UN Women–UNOPS pilot initiative that transformed rehabilitated public spaces into platforms for dialogue, social cohesion, and women-led peacebuilding. Drawing on lessons from activities in Horsh Beirut and Jesuit Garden, the publication highlights how combining infrastructure rehabilitation with gender- and conflict-sensitive community engagement can strengthen trust, foster inclusive participation, and support recovery in post-crisis urban settings.
