An open diwaniya

An open evening on questions of identity and belonging among university students, with a number of lecturers and graduates taking part.

The activity ran as part of the foundation's annual programme at the University of Aleppo, with the student chapter at the Faculty of Arts. The programme was designed to be as practical as possible: a short talk, then an open discussion, then work in small groups.

Those attending took part in hands-on exercises and left with a short plan of their own. This activity runs regularly, and its dates are posted on the activities page and in the newsletter.
