The Initiative Ana Hunna “أنا هنا, I am here, Je suis là“  which is part of a regional GIZ programme on women empowerment showed one of its short movies called “Woman and a Half”. The movie tells the story of two women divided by a wide social gap, but still friends. Inspired by the movie, the audience got engaged in a lively discussion on the situation, challenges and professional opportunities of working women in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region.
