Samir and Farrah met with Omar Badr from Sawti, an initiative from Impact Lebanon. Sawti, or my voice/vote in Arabic, hopes to equip voters with the information needed for the upcoming elections.
Impact Lebanon is a non-profit grassroots organisation that raised millions to help Lebanon's recovery. Sibylle George, one of the co-founders, tells us the story of how it happened, what they are funding and what is next.
Artist: Oktave (Brooklyn, United States) Label: Inward Records Genre: Organic House / Downtempo Release Date: 30.09.2020 Beatport: https://www.beatport.com/release/kun-al-muruna/3136448 Oktave resides in New York. He is the co-founder of Kuná, an NYC based event series. With his partner Mashrik, who is originally from Lebanon, they have decided to make a music compilation of original tracks from a total of 26 exceptional artists from every part of the globe who agreed to support the cause. The purpose of this compilation is to fundraise money to help rebuild Lebanon. A lot of NGOs are on the ground collecting foreign aids as the government cannot be trusted. Our goal is to raise as much as possible by selling the compilation through several distribution and streaming platforms. For this reason, we decided to partner with Inward Records, the Label that's Co-owned by the duo @sparrowandbarbossa and @pippiciez who is the maestro behind the amazing mastering of the tracks. 100% of the proceeds from the compilation will go directly to NGOs in Lebanon, such as the Lebanese Red Cross, Impact Lebanon and Nawraj. We, the Kuná founders and Inward Team, are humbled to have so many talented artists agreeing to offer their music as a mean to bring people together to support a good cause and make a difference in a country that desperately needs help.

This week, we tackle the aftermath of the massive explosion that shook Lebanon's capital Beirut on August 4.The cataclysmic blast at Beirut's port claimed the lives of at least 171 people and injured around 6,500 others. About half the city was left damaged or destroyed, with hundreds of thousands made homeless. As the explosion sank Beirut even further into the depths of Lebanon's economic crisis, few will be able to afford to repair or rebuild their homes.The tragedy has revived anger at a political elite whose alleged negligence has been blamed for the blast, as reports suggest the authorities knew for years of the presence of dangerous stocks of ammonium nitrate that triggered the explosion, close to the residential, commercial and cultural heart of Beirut.With the absence of a proactive government, Beirut's residents assembled task forces to care for each other and rebuild their city. As the world mourned with Lebanon, donations poured in for NGOs engaging in direct relief efforts on the ground. One of them is London-based Impact Lebanon, a little known organisation that has quickly mobilised to lead the overseas appeal for aid to Beirut. The New Arab spoke to to Impact Lebanon co-founder Diana Abbas, who says her organization felt a responsibility to take action amid the initial confusion of the devastating explosion.At the time of this episode's release, Impact Lebanon has already exceeded £5 million in donations on its fundraiser for Beirut. The organization has since raised its target to £7.5 million. Should our listeners want to make a donation, they can find the fundraiser on the websites of Impact Lebanon and JustGiving, or by clicking here.To read The New Arab's full profile of Impact Lebanon, click hereMake sure to follow The New Arab's coverage of the Beirut blast on our website www.newarab.co.uk and social media channels Follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram for more.This episode was hosted and produced by Danya Hajjaji, and researched by Narjas Zatat.
