afikra | عفكرة is a global organization that aims to promote intellectualism and the diversity and richness of the Arab world’s cultures and histories. Through our events globally, our podcasts online and our academy courses, we've built a global community of volunteers, thinkers, and explorers who are reshaping the story about the Arab world together.
We are a movement that exists to reframe the way people perceive the Arab world. We strive to challenge common misconceptions and encourage intellectual dialogue about the region's rich history, diverse culture, and extraordinary people. Join us in fostering a deeper appreciation for the Arab world and its unique contributions to the global community.
