Our Projects
AJSADOUNA
AJSADOUNA (Our Bodies) is an online magazine and collective archive that centers bodily experiences and lived realities in Lebanon through art, storytelling, and creative expression. Bringing together personal and intersecting narratives from marginalized communities, it creates space for bodies, memories, and identities often excluded from dominant discourse. Through evolving artistic and participatory approaches, AJSADOUNA documents lived experiences while imagining community-driven and body-centered forms of transformation.

Launched in 2024, it offers flexible, context-driven support tailored to each partner's needs, including financial assistance, small grants, training, and other collaborative opportunities that strengthen their work and increase their impact, particularly during times of crisis.
