Our Mission

Hi! Thanks for stopping by!

We're a youth-led creative platform committed to shifting the narrative around stories about MENA/SWANA communities. How did the menarrative come to be? Well, one question soon led to another: we wondered, how can we expand visibility for MENA/SWANA creatives in a world where their stories are too often misunderstood or ignored? And what happens if young people took control of the pen, the paintbrush, the mic, the camera - and became part of the solution?

From exclusive celebrity interviews on our podcast to op-eds to impact production services, our goal is to honor and celebrate organic, affirming representation (the kind we wish we had as a wee kid) and empower the next generation of creatives.

So, are you ready to rewrite the #MENArrative and inspire the world?
