$As part of the "Stand Speak Rise Up - To end sexual violence in sensitive areas" forum that the HRH Grand Duchess organised in Luxembourg in March 2019, she is currently in the middle of a 4-day trip to Lebanon.
In Beirut on Monday, Her Royal Highness was received by the President of the Republic of Lebanon, HE Michel Aoun; the Speaker of Parliament, HE Mr. Nabih Berri; President of the Council of Ministers and Prime Minister, HE Mr. Saad Hariri.
At the end of these meetings, HRH the Grand Duchess went to Rafik Hariri University Hospital (RHUH). During her visit, the Grand Duchess visited the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) patients to give support for physical injuries, mental health and psychosocial trauma.
After some explanations on the collaboration between the hospital and the ICRC, HRH attended a presentation by Unicef of the mobile application "Clinical management of rape for healthcare workers" to train medical staff to care and support survivors of sexual violence.
