Al-Raida (English: The Woman Pioneer) is a bi-annual peer-reviewed feminist academic journal covering women's and gender studies.

Established in 1976, it is published by The Arab Institute for Women at the Lebanese American University.

[2] The Institute for Women's Studies in the Arab World was set up in 1973 at the Beirut University College, with funding from the Ford Foundation.

As the college was founded by Christian American missionaries, the journal was exclusively published in English for much of its history until the fall-winter edition of 2001 when an Arabic edition was published.
