As part of the ongoing project activities, Mawjaat is launching its travel diary, created by Jeanne Pierson, designed as a tool for memory and transmission. Structured into seven chapters, it will follow the project roadmap by documenting its different stages, experimentations and the ongoing collective dynamics. The first chapter will report on the first workshop organized in Tunis in February 2026, which focused on the following theme: “From Care to Collective Resilience.”
The Mawjaat project began with a first meeting in Alexandria in November 2025, bringing together partners from Algeria, Egypt, France, Lebanon, Morocco, and Tunisia. This first gathering laid the foundations for a cooperation centered on the sharing of practices, experimentation on transition issues, and the building of the collective dynamic.
Within this framework, the Mawjaat travel diary, created by graphic designer and illustrator Jeanne Pierson, is intended as a tool to monitor, highlight and support the dissemination of the project. Its purpose is to document the different stages of the roadmap by reporting on the activities carried out, the exchanges between the creative hubs and cultural spaces, as their ecosystems, and the lessons learned from these experiences. Structured in several chapters, the travel diary will serve as a resource to foster a deeper understanding of the development issues addressed by the project and to share methods and practicese initiated within the collective.
The introduction, available for download below, provides a first detailed report of the meeting, of the presentations of each creative hub pilot and cultural spaces, and the collective process that led to the construction of the shared vision for the project. The first chapter, coming soon, will come back on the two-day workshop in Tunis (Tunisia) which focus on the theme “From care to collective resilience.” It will explore “care” practices as levers to strengthen organizations and consolidate collective dynamics to create more sustainable and equitable models.
