DESCRIPTION

Tea is part of the Arab culture and tradition, the consumption of tea in this area is very high. The MENA region consumes 25% of global tea production. However, tea does not grow in the Arab world. So how did it make it’s way from the Far East all the way to the Middle East?

ABOUT THE AFIKRA COMMUNITY PRESENTATIONS

Delivered and prepared by afikra Community members, the presentation’s goal is to showcase the presenter’s curiosity and research, and share some knowledge on a ‎topic related to the Arab world’s histories and cultures. The presentation is the ‎culmination of the afikra coaching process to help identify a topic, find research, and develop the ‎presentation. afikra presentations come in two forms, a long question-driven afikra Feature, and a short afikra FWD with the purpose of sharing something interesting.
