What Is Tarikhi?

TARIKHI: A PLATFORM FOR STORIES FROM THE ARAB REGION & BEYOND

Tarikhi (Arabic for "My History") is a platform for the dissemination and promotion of recorded interviews with and narratives by individuals from across the Arab region and beyond about a variety of topics, including culture, livelihoods, migration and human rights.

Instigated and curated by Sharq.Org, an NGO that promotes peace and pluralism across the Arab region and beyond, this platform aims to promote the ancient human practice of sharing and listening to stories. The virtual library houses various collections produced by Sharq.Org and its many partners, while the journal explores and highlights the work of the many professionals worldwide engaged in documenting and sharing stories in a myriad and creative ways.
