Sikka turns 5!

Thursday, 17 October 2024

On October 17th, 2019, Sikka opened its doors—and on that very day, we took to the streets for a better future. We've always believed (and still do) that Saida has the potential to thrive. It just needs people to come together, share ideas, and make things happen.

From day one, our space has been open to everyone, encouraging the community to explore, create, and collaborate. But the truth is, we wouldn’t be here without the incredible people who have used Sikka as a platform for change. They are the ones doing the hard work, pushing boundaries, and driving the evolution of Saida.

Five years later, Saida is still fighting, resisting, and standing in solidarity with its people, the South, and Gaza. We are truly honored to be a part of this journey, but even more honored to support those who are leading it.

A huge thank you to Hania @haniazaatari , Basma @bbsmja , Assaad @assaadar and the Zero Gravity team @zerogravitythenics , Bilal @bilal.mirie , Sarah @saritohijazi , Reham @rehamsees , Tarek @tarek.h.abadi , Ahmed, Wafiqa @learner_link_center , Agrimovement @agrimovement , and everyone who has given us hope and inspired us with their efforts.

We owe you a big birthday cake if we make it! 🎂
