We missed you...





Long Time no see!


Since we jumped into this new year we didn't get back to you and we are honestly sorry! Promise ...We will fix this But this doesn't mean that we didn't think about you and that  were not working ....

We are enthusiastic to announce that ALPHA developed a new initiative that will be implemented in Beirut area ... [Bey]Box project!
[Bey]Box project | Urban participatory workshops is about creating a practical platform on which the opportunity for collective [re]thinking of common urban spaces can take place: professionals and citizens together. Urban walks, Urban Cafe, Urban participatory workshops....all the tools to better understand our direct environment and create a collective vision of another Beirut.

So  keep posted and let's jump together into that new challenge!

Best,
ALPHA team

Launching of the Bibliobus

What a fun day! 
Although the Bibliobus has already been traveling through the South for some weeks now, providing children from marginalized areas with access to reading and recreational activities, we were glad to be able to present it officially at the Salon du Livre 2012. This was possible thanks to the Institut Francais, which has been supporting ALPHA throughout the implementation of its projects with kindness and constance. 

Special thanks also to the Foundation CMA CGM which co-founded the Bibliobus and made our dream come true!
