5.6.2 IUL has a policy of non-discrimination for transgender people

Transgender people exist in the Lebanese and Arabic societies, but the IUL does not ask about these issues. Its application is studied based on its deserving and not on its gender. None of the IUL applications whether for employee or student include a term that requires mentioning this issue as the IUL believes it’s a private and personal matter in which it does not interfere and does not make any impact.

As we can see in the required documents, it is not inquired about it.
