Mission Statement

In Focus started in 2007 with the club’s first official group on Facebook.

The club’s activities ranged from sharing views on members’ pictures, conducting a daily photo contest, carrying out workshops in the famous Fatimia Cairo neighborhoods, and then taking a new photograph of the pulse of the Egyptian street.

The photographers traveled to all parts of the republic to discover Egypt, Alexandria, Port Said, Siwa Oasis, South of Sinai, Fayoum, Luxor, Aswan and Nubia.
