Ideas Beyond Borders is a non-profit organization based in New York, NY, dedicated to empowering individuals in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region with access to new ideas and fresh perspectives. Founded by Faisal Saeed Al Mutar, a refugee social entrepreneur with firsthand experience of extremism and authoritarian regimes, the organization develops and implements international programs to counter extremism, encourage critical thinking, and fund innovative projects that promote freedom and fight repression.
Through partnerships with youth and young adults in the region, Ideas Beyond Borders works to make vital but often banned information accessible to Arabic, Farsi, and Kurdish speakers everywhere. Their certified translators diligently translate and distribute topics such as critical thinking, civil rights, science, and pluralism, aiming to ignite progress and be an agent of change in the MENA region.
