Through our experience and important network in Jordan, we can contribute in spreading awareness about the ALF in Jordan, and helping it in implementing its mission, mostly empowering the youth through Arts and Music, as well as supporting civil society and influencing the policy makers.
We would like to join The Anna Lindh Euro-Mediterranean Foundation to be part of the Dialogue Between Cultures, and be part of its network of civil society organisations dedicated to promoting intercultural dialogue in the Mediterranean region.
We believe that our mission align with the Anna Lindh Foundation mission and we can be an added value to its network.
