Utopia Organization

What is UTOPIA? UTOPIA is a non-governmental, non-profit organization dedicated to abolishing all types of social discrepancies through specialized projects and programs that rely on voluntary work, in hopes of acquiring social justice among people within the same society regardless of their political or religious beliefs. Purpose UTOPIA’s purpose is to inspire a culture of civic awareness and equal citizenship in the Lebanese society and in Tripoli in particular to make the change we aim at achieving. Volunteers UTOPIA relies heavily on voluntary work for achieving its mission. UTOPIA’s volunteers are the backbone of the organization and they come from all the walks of life: they include professionals as well as enthusiastic school and university students. These dedicated individuals have taken on the mission of raising civic awareness and igniting a spirit of change among the Tripolitan society. A Brief History In 2011, a group of enthusiastic social activists got together and came up with the idea of organizing a civic campaign aimed at raising public awareness and advocating for citizens’ rights in Tripoli away from political affiliations and parties. With limited financial and human resources, the campaign organized few activities mostly for children and youth in the underprivileged areas of Tripoli. After two years of operation, the small campaign became an officially registered NGO at the Ministry of Interior and Municipalities, under the name of UTOPIA, and its effectiveness has been stated in testimonials of volunteers and beneficiaries and in reports from partners and the media.
