Coordinated between representatives in Cairo, Milan and London, <em>Zawia</em> also produces a series of collaborative events on architecture, design and urbanism, while basing its publication in Egypt. This multi-national collaboration is a indicative of <em>Zawia</em>&rsquo;s purpose, to help dissolve the Middle East&rsquo;s intellectual isolation from global architectural discourse and create an open discussion still rich in local perspectives.</p>
