Arab Civilisation Workshop for Kids and Adults

Gnien tal-Gherf has noticed that one of the cultures often avoided in kids' programs is the Arab culture. The more they started talking to other parents about this, the more it became clear that there is a fear of anything Arab in Maltese parenting.

Arab stereotypes among educators, popular films and television imprint young children with numerous negative images of Arabs, and Maltese educators do not do enough to correct this bias. Many do not even perceive anti-Arab racism as a problem. Fear is not something we want our sons and daughters to associate with the world and its marvelous cultural differences. Fear buries curiosity and learning under a cloak of self-doubt…. So let them discover and be curious to grow free!
