About the afikra Community Presentations:

A community member delivers an in-depth presentation on a ‎topic related to the Arab world’s history and culture during a one-hour online event. The presentation is the ‎culmination of a month-long afikra coaching process to help identify a topic, find research, and develop the ‎presentation. The goal is to showcase the presenter’s curiosity, research, and share some knowledge. Each ‎presentation is followed by a moderated Q&A with questions coming from the live virtual audience on Zoom. ‎Join the live audience: https://www.afikra.com/rsvp
