Publicatiedatum: woensdag 26 oktober 2011

Cultural groups, educational bodies and NGOs from Egypt, Jordan and Tunisia gathered on 13th October at the Bibliotheca Alexandrina for the launch of ‘Young Arab Voices’, a joint regional initiative of the Anna Lindh Foundation and the British Council in response to the historic changes in the Arab world.

Young Arab Voices’ focuses on training young people in debating skills and facilitating youth participation in debates tackling the most pressing social issues of the day in order to assume an active role as citizens in the new processes of democratic transition and reform. The regional initiative, which is co-financed by the British Foreign Office’s Arab Partnership Initiative, will initially run over two years (2011 to 2013) in Egypt, Tunisia, Jordan and three additional countries of the region.
