Women鈥檚 War Stories: Building an archive of women and the Lebanese Civil War

September 2016, Professors Michelle Hartman and Malek Abisaab won a prestigious five year, Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) Insight Grant. The project titled, "Women鈥檚 War Stories: Building an archive of women and the Lebanese Civil War鈥 will also involve collaborative work with scholars, writers, artists and activists in Lebanon, including Professor Yasmine Nachabe Taan, Lena Merhej and Iman Humaydan. The multi-year project seeks to document and think about the ways in which women in Lebanon experienced, expressed and continue to express their own 鈥渨ar stories.鈥 In addition to working to document the stories of Lebanese and Palestinian women militants and activists in the war, it also will analyze and work with these stories in multiple ways to further the conversations in Lebanon and around the world about the war. Literary texts, oral narratives, comics, visual storytelling and other visual art will also be analyzed, used and created to further these conversations.鈥 for more information or to get involved, contact michelle.hartman [at] mcgill.ca (Michelle Hartman) or malek.abisaab [at] mcgill.ca (Malek Abisaab).
