Last year, AFSC brought together artists, activists, and cultural practitioners from the Middle East and North Africa in Amman, Jordan. They shared their knowledge and experiences in using art for social change—and strategized ways to support each other in working for peace and justice. Our limited podcast series, “Assembly,” features the stories and perspectives of some of our participants. In this episode, we hear from Hatem Salama, a program officer for the Ford Foundation in Cairo. He talks about the importance of supporting organizations working for social justice through art, culture, and the media.
