Development and raising awareness may be costly, but it will be even more costly not to have them, especially when reactionary ideas are constantly making inroads at the expense of culture and arts.

Independent Shabab Foundation (ISF), active since 2006, is a non-profit NGO working in the fields of theatre and cinema. It was founded by a number of artists and culture activists with the aim of supporting independent artists and contributing to raise awareness and promote and develop taste in art in Egypt.
