It was created in the spring of 2011 as an answer to the lack of a unique platform gathering the incredible diversity and dynamism of Arab-related cultural initiatives happening in the French capital on a daily basis.
A cosmopolitan French-speaking media outlet with a distinctive Parisian flair, Ustaza à Paris celebrates a vibrant French-Arab identity everyone can relate to, based on more than two centuries of shared History.
In the current context, Ustaza à Paris challenges misconceptions and prejudice at its own level, for a richer and more tolerant society through arts and culture.
Ustaza à Paris is first and foremost a cultural agenda gathering on a single media outlet an incredible diversity of events related to Arab culture happening in Paris and its surroundings, but also beyond.
While Ustaza à Paris’s focus is on cultural events happening in France, the website features an online magazine made of interviews, reviews and analysis that can be translated into English or Arabic on request.
In addition to its website, Ustaza à Paris also offers a regular newsletter and is active on social media, particularly through its Facebook page. Moreover, it promotes Arab culture in other media such as radio, websites and the press through regular columns and chronicles.
As a registered NGO, Ustaza à Paris intervenes in a number of events, as expert on Arab culture or co-organizer.
At Ustaza à Paris we share the values promoted by the Foundation Anna Lindh of intercultural dialogue through culture and education.
As the online Arab cultural agenda we aim at promoting the incredible diversity and dynamism of Arab culture and the deep cultural and human links between the two shores of the Mediterranean.
We want to join the ALF Network to benefit from the visiblity and support of the Network, but also to share experience with other members and build collaborations with them in the field of Arab culture in France and abroad.
