Safirlab - Supporting those working for change in the Arab worldUnder the umbrella of the "Beirut Spring", and in homage to journalist Samir Kassir, who disappeared ten years ago, and to his birthplace, the foundation that bears his name organised the Change Makers Forum, which took place on 24 May 2015 at the St. Joseph University Innovation and Sport Campus in Beirut (Lebanon).
CFI suggested that SafirLab project prize-winners Hind Touissate (photo) and Saad Said Eddine (both from Morocco) and Shaady Ramadan (from Egypt) attend this forum, where they had the opportunity to present their professional and citizen projects and to network with, in particular, other project leads, with a view to potential future collaborations.
This "Initiators of Change" forum brought together around forty Lebanese and Arab organisations, NGOs, citizens' groups and social entrepreneurs, working to make their countries more democratic, tolerant and prosperous, and also ambassadors and donors present in Lebanon.
