TAKREEM is a foundation that was established in 2009 with the aim of accompanying the Arab world’s journey for change by acknowledging Arab accomplishments all around the world and playing its part in bringing together the actors of the region’s makeover. The Foundation organizes year-round conferences, symposiums, meetings, mentorships, and an annual Awards Ceremony. Since its inception, it has honored close to one hundred laureates coming from almost every Arab country. It built bridges between North Africa, the Middle East, the Gulf, and Arab diaspora, creating a community of like-minded people and acting as a gateway for the region’s cultural, educational, scientific, environmental, humanitarian, social and economic excellence.
