THIS IS LEBANON
A human trafficking network operating in Lebanon has been exposed, involving illegal brokers who exploit migrant domestic workers, steal their salaries, and deceive Lebanese employers. Survivors' testimonies reveal horrifying abuse, including sexual predation, forced labor, and deception—urgent action is needed to dismantle this network.
It has been said that "This Is Lebanon is digging up the dead". Zafu is one of the people we have dug up.
After eight years of silence, advocacy finally secured Ruth Odima the $900 she was owed—proof that for many workers in Lebanon, justice comes through pressure, not the courts.
Our Story
This Is Lebanon started to give a voice to domestic workers. Less than two years later we became the hotline for domestic workers in Lebanon.
