Written by co-founder Agn???s Sanders, discover Tahaddi's exciting adventure. Follow Agn???s, a medical doctor, and her friend Myriam, a teacher, moved by the vulnerability of Beirut's poorest, as they began accompanying families in the Hayy Al Gharbeh slum. Taking place amid exclusion, racism, discrimination, and war, this personal initiative became gradually became an NGO. Little by little, a relationship of trust was established, thanks to these two women's willingness to engage with the community, one family at a time, while involving them in their own development. Don't expect a bare-bones chronological account of Tahaddi's astonishing evolution. Rather, read the stories of some of the slum families that Tahaddi accompanied between 1997 and 2019 and experience their daily challenges that also become those of Tahaddi. In a world of growing inequality, Tahaddi's work resonates strongly. By giving access to health and education to these families, many of whom are undocumented and have no future in the heart of a glitzy Beirut, Tahaddi participates in their inner reconstruction. Hope in the Heart of a Beirut Slum is a hymn to the recovered dignity of men, women and children.
