Providing Psychosocial Support to Artists in the Digital Field

In this Glitter Meetup we will talk with Musawah ('equality' in Arabic), which is a nonprofit organization based out of Malaysia that oils the wheels of a global movement made up of Muslim women, promoting equality and justice in the Muslim family.

They will present their new Artistic Fellowship, digital arts and how artists may experience trauma of violence or grieve throughout their reflection and creation journey online. This six-month, non-residential, seeks to support the artists with need-based therapy and is looking to engage with the community for support.

Featured Guests:

  • Fatima Qureshi: She is a freelance journalist from Hong Kong. Currently, she leads the external communications arm of Musawah.
  • Elyna Shukri: She is a film producer and curator from Malaysia.
