Hakaya is a culmination of several
years of cooperation and dialogue amongst
various individuals and groups in the Arab
world regarding the centrality of “stories”
in individual development, and cultural
growth. This project brings together
artists, oral historians, story-tellers, and
educators in a network, residencies,
workshops, and an itinerant festival which
will present “story-telling” in its various
forms and show how it enriches the theatre,
the arts, and is crucial to the development
of literacy and the formation of identity
and inter-cultural dialogue. The partners in
the first phase are: The Arab Education
Forum, The Al Balad theatre (Jordan), The
Arab Theatre Training Center (Lebanon),
L'echangeur (France), MS (Denmark), Tamer
Institute for Community Education
(Palestine).
