Mission Statement

Please note that there is no recent update for this initiative. 

 

Elto7fageyya is a non-profit cultural project, founded by a group of friends. 
We aim to reveal the beauty betrayed with neglect, and the different shades of knowledge betrayed with platitude, as there much left to be seen. 
Elto7fageyya share their work via two main channels: fortnightly cultural gatherings, and Elto7fageyya's online platform 
The gatherings take place on the first, third - and fifth if any - Saturday of each month, at "Room Art Space" in Garden City, from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.
The meetings vary between presentations on literary, social, scientific or historical topics, Listening to and discussing music, watching short movies, as well as, competitions and creative contributions. The meetings are documented and uploaded to Elto7fageyya's website.
The online platform aims to share/present/highlight the works of several important figures, cultural, artistic and philosophical schools which are undervalued in and outside the Arab cultural society, through Facebook pages and Elto7fageyya's website, which includes information about them, translated articles, pictures, and videos if available. 
In addition, Elto7fageyya works to enrich the Arabic content on "Wikipedia", by adding or updating the pages through collecting data which is then formulated or, translated, analyzed and revised, then added to the website. 
Elto7fageyya has no political , religious or nationalist afflliations. We support freedom, jutice, work, love, equality and primitive human values.
