Ideas Unbound: Esra'a Al Shafei and Mideast Youth Giving a Voice to Social Change

July 01, 2014  /  Anne Ulizio

A dialogue with Esra'a Al Shafei, founder and director of the Mideast Youth Network. At age 27, Esra'a has been instrumental in facilitating the discussion of and providing a voice for progressive social change movements in the Middle East and North Africa. The network consists of six different websites—mideastyouth.com, mideastunes.com, crowdvoice.org, ahwaa.org, kurdishrights.org and migrant-rights.org—all harnessing the power of web platforms to shed a light on the struggles of ethnic, social and religious minority rights.
