About Masahat
Masahat is a non-profit organization established in 2015 in Norway with the purpose of curating and presenting knowledge, history, art and culture from the Middle East and North Africa with a special focus on the Arab world.
Masahat brings forward the activism and hope that was sparked by the Arab Spring to create unique spaces in Norway facilitating non-hierarchical exchange of expertise, ideas, art and inspiration. We periodically change the focus of our activities to feature underrepresented expert and artistic voices from the Middle East in events such as art exhibitions, panel debates, film screenings, reading circles, expert seminars, concerts and conferences.
By working cross-thematically and partnering with a wide range of Norwegian actors, Masahat caters to a broad audience comprising both Norwegians and multi-lingiual minorities from the Arab world. Masahat contributes to a more diverse Norwegian public debate and more inclusive artistic and cultural scene.
