Under the patronage of HRH Princess Haya Bint Al Hussein, wife of HH Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, NAWF was first launched in Dubai in 2007, and then moved to Beirut where it was held in 2008, 2009 and 2010 under the patronage of H.E. Wafaa Michel Suleiman. NAWF has now established itself as a pioneering, widely attended annual event in the region, and building on its huge success, our aim is to continue to develop it and to widen its scope, impact and authority in the Arab world.
Established in 1909, Al Hasnaa accompanied the Arab Woman in her march and covered her evolution, highlighting in its pages issues about various facets and aspects of her life and identity, standing apart in its openness and objective coverage of different ideas and lifestyles.
