The Knowledge Workshop (KW) is a feminist organization founded in 2015, an ongoing workshop for (re)searching local women’s stories and histories, and for creating and making accessible feminist resources. KW also works on engaging women at the grassroots level, and on connecting with feminist movements to ensure the continuity of feminist presence in the region. The KW has three primary tracks: the Feminist Library, a space that makes its books and resources open to the public, the Feminist School, an endeavor ambitious about the importance of investing in alternative learning and educational spaces from which organizers and critical activists can emerge, and the Storytellers Project, which centers on collecting, archiving, and publishing feminist oral history interviews. The Knowledge Workshop builds on the work of Sawt al Niswa, the feminist collective and webspace. It is largely because of Sawt al Niswa, and the women who shaped it, that KW has become possible. ورشة المعارف مؤسسة نسوية تأسّست عام 2015 وهي ورشة مستمرّة للبحث عن قصص النساء وجمعها، ولخلق ومشاركة الموارد النسوية المحليّة . تعمل الورشة على إنتاج معارف نسوية وإنتاج أرشيف وتوثيق للذاكرة النسوية في لبنان والمنطقة، كما تعمل على بناء مجموعات قاعدية والتشبيك مع حِراك نسوي وحركات نسوية بهدف تنظيم النسويات وديمومة الوجود النسوي في المنطقة. تعمل الورشة على 3 مشاريع أساسيّة: تفتح الورشة فضائها كحاضنة لمكتبة نسوية متاحة إلى العموم، كما في احتضان المدرسة النسّوية التي تطمح في التأكيد على ضرورة الاستثمار في عمليات التعلّم والتربية القاعدية البديلة والتي ينتج منها وعنها مُنظمين وناشطين نقديين، ومشروع الحكواتيات، القائم على جمع وتوثيق ونشر مقابلات تاريخ شفوي نسوي. نبني عملنا في الورشة على خبراتنا في مجموعة صوت النسوة. فقد استطعنا أن نحقّق حلم الورشة بفضل صوت النسوة والنسويات التي أثّرت بهذه المساحة.

Kohl: a Journal for Body and Gender Research كحل: مجلة لأبحاث الجسد و الجندر is a progressive, feminist journal on gender and sexuality in the Middle East, South West Asia, and North Africa regions. Kohl Journal is a biannual, multilingual, open access, and peer reviewed academic journal. It targets mainly, but not exclusively, graduate-level academics, fresh graduates, independent writers, activists, and researchers who are not affiliated with an academic institution. We also welcome submissions from seminal contributors in the field. Based in Beirut, Lebanon, and Paris, France, Kohl Journal originated from the belief that much of what is widely available for mainstream readership on feminism, gender, and sexuality in our regions is burdened with Orientalist misconceptions, shallow investigations, and a paradoxical mixture of over and under-researching. While particularly narrow, or “hot,” topics are popularized and explored in a myriad of ways, many important positionalities and contexts are left untreated. This journal hopes to trouble the hegemony of knowledge production, and ensure that our regions and communities play a central role in redefining their own intersections and challenges when it comes to feminist and sexuality research. At Kohl, we intend to provide a non-exoticizing, non-minority platform to promote independent knowledge and knowledge by young and graduate-level academics, thereby bridging the gap between activist circles and academia. Kohl also encourages the free and equal access to information and resources. Feel free to read, share, and use our published material, provided you reference our authors and the journal. Conceived in the corners of a class on Orientalism, Kohl is the realization of a political vision. Kohl is the main publication of Archives du Savoir Feministe Intersectionnel (Intersectional Knowledge Publishers).
