About Tawasol
Tawasol for Developing Istabl Antar NGO (Tawasol Egypt) was founded in 2008 as an NGO registered with the Ministry of Social Solidarity to serve the low-income communities in three of Cairo’s informal slum areas: Ezzbet Khairallah, Istabl Antar, and Batn el Ba’ara/Dar Al Salam. In response to community needs in those areas, Tawasol has developed over the years an integrated community development approach combining education with vocational training and health services. In 2012, Tawasol launched its performing arts program in order to have a creative outlet for its students and develop their talents through theatre, choir, Egyptian folklore, and circus arts.
