The event was part of the ACCESS-MENA project, and was held at the UNESCO Palace in Beirut.

In preparation for the event, 5 focus group discussions had been held between July and September 2007 (10 July: Saida and Sour. 30 August: Tripoli and Akkar. 7 September: Zahle. 19 September: Beirut).  These focus group discussions, implemented by consultant Abou Haidar, had dressed the draft law about banning corporal punishment in schools and reintegration of drop out children, and present it to the Lebanese Parliament.
