Some of my past work
In 2009, I created Taste Culture which was an initiative aimed at providing an innovative and creative solution to address racism and the plight of migrant workers in Lebanon. Here’s what I accomplished:
- A monthly food festival showcasing foods from the countries of migrant workers.
- Monthly café for discussion between leaders from the migrant worker community and Lebanese.
- Provided extra income for migrant workers and refugees by creating dance workshops led by migrants/refugees and a monthly restaurant.
- Vigils to honour the deaths of migrant domestic workers.
- Sparked interest and awareness from local and international NGO’s to start implementing projects aimed at providing support for migrant domestic workers.
This gave birth to the 24/7 Campaign for Migrant Rights in Lebanon, which was launched in 2010. The campaign was aimed at advocating twenty-four hours of rest each week. We gathered bloggers and social media activists from the Middle East and North Africa to raise awareness to racism and the treatment of migrant domestic workers.
The second component of the campaign forged ties with artists and local Lebanese NGO’s. We hosted the first march for migrant domestic worker rights, our concert showcased the first migrant worker band and we broke the class barrier by hosting the first dance party where Lebanese and migrant workers enjoyed a night of fun.
