The Reach Out NGO was founded in 2008 with the mission of cultural exchange and capacity building in Egypt. Through its program Reach Out aims to build up cultural exchange between Egyptians and foreigners. This includes several features, from providing interactive workshops to organizing internships for interested students with other NGOs and organizations in Cairo. As language is the key to every culture, the Integrated Human Development Center (IHDC) language program was our first project and has been rapidly developed to fit the needs of those who have joined it. Here Egyptians get the opportunity to learn foreign languages directly by volunteer native speakers for a very low cost. Hence a wide range of people who otherwise would never be given the chance to develop their skills are supported, with the idea of them being the basic human resource of this country. At the same time the language program provides cultural exchange for both sides as foreigners teach their mother language to Egypt’s natives. But as cultural exchange is not only dedicated to language our organization offers programs for art and music exchange, amongst others, to understand traditions and customs of other cultures in daily life. It is therefore a win-win project for locals and foreigners, who learn to understand, accept and integrate with each other. An essential critical dialogue shall be initiated between our cultures which in turn will build a strong bridge between them.
