Our Vision

To enrich our community members in the United States of America with knowledge about the history and social heritage of their ancestral region of Swaida.

 

Our Mission

A deeper knowledge of our past enriches our character and culture, and empowers our members, especially the US-born generation, to connect with their roots, navigate their identity and contribute positively to their communities.

​

We will implement programs that cover the different facets of culture including topics related to history, traditions, art, music, literature and poetry through different modalities of interaction:

​

 

- Online Blog and Quarterly Publication: 

In depth essay covering a particular topic each quarter including a series of stories In the near future, our goal is to develop a quarterly magazine/journal that regularly includes several of these topics.

​

 

- Interactive Seminars/Workshops: 

Online events in the format of instructional classes and/or lectures open to all. Ex. traditional cooking classes, handicrafts, dabke, historical topics, types of poetry (jawfiya, qasa’id fan, hawliya), etc.

​

 

- Exhibition at the National Convention: 

The P & C Committee will be given a space at each annual convention for an exhibition around a particular topic or theme, such as historical figures, art gallery, old photographs and documents, traditional clothing, etc.

​

 

- Research and Discussion:

Encourage students and scholars in our community to conduct scholarly work and focus group discussion on Swaida’s culture including sociology, geography, agriculture, industry and historical relics.
