SafirLab is recruiting for its new intake!

CFI and the Institut Français are calling for applications for the next edition of SafirLab. If you are aged between 20 and 30 and have an innovative project in the fields of media or civil society, then apply for SafirLab 2018!

Since 2012, this "accelerator" programme designed to support initiatives aimed at strengthening civil society and developing new media outlets enables around twenty project leaders from the Arab world to benefit, over a period of eight months, from the expertise of eminent players in French and Arab civil society, to share successful local experiences and to conceive new phases for their business or community initiatives.

For its seventh edition, SafirLab will see changes to how it is run and implemented, with greater local support, new partnerships and geographical expansion, Syria and Iraq now being eligible to take part in the call for applications this year. The inclusion of these two countries will ensure the project is fully coherent geographically and enable action in priority regions by contributing to the enhancement of skills in young people, the future agents of national cohesion.

Submit your project to SafirLab!
