She graduated from the American Univerity of Beirut as a Landscape Architect. Today, she is the co-founder and COO of the one of the most innovative tech companies in the MENA region.

Considered one of the top ten Women in Tech in our region by Forbes, Priscilla Elora Sharuk (@priscillaelora) became an entrepreneur by accident. She never thought she'd manage MYKI (@mykisecurity ), an offline password manager, a game-changer in Cyber Security. MYKI stores all your sensitive data locally across your devices. And now with the surge in e-commerce and cryptocurrency, all companies want a piece of MYKI.

Priscilla wants to help the next generation of entrepreneurs. In an ever-expanding market, they have a golden ticket: they only need to start.

Human Rights Watch researcher and Harvard graduate Aya Majzoub recorded the severe human rights violations recorded during these protests, similar to those during the October 17 Revolution. She also documented the arrest of many activists and journalists due to our weak defamation laws.

Tune in this Friday for another episode of Simply Youth Podcast where we talk about the most pressing issues in the Lebanese sociopolitical sphere.

Zeina Daccache is a lot of things: she's an award winning director, actress, and drama therapist. Most importantly, she's a social activist who has attempted to change our twisted misconceptions towards prisoners.

Through her documentaries, plays, and movies, Daccache gives back those prisoners their voice. By empowering this historically marginalized and abused community, Daccache has succeeded in altering and legislating numerous laws, including rewards for good treatment and protecting victims of domestic abuse.

And she is not stopping any time soon. Her NGO Catharsis - The Lebanese Center for Drama Therapy focuses on the use art to help people rehabilitate, something prisons always forget to do.

A brand-new episode airing on Simply Youth Podcast. Mariana Wehbe shares her story being the head and founder of her PR company Mariana Wehbe Public Relations.

The past was erased. The erasure was forgotten. The lie became the truth."

Lebanon's Big Brother is watching you.

In true Orwellian nature, the General Security was established to preserve "civil peace and stability". Instead, it has succumbed to the will of the ruling parties and religious organizations.

Independent press is always under attack. Any mention of the civil war is strictly prohibited.
