Dalhousie Egyptian Society

We, the Dalhousie Egyptian Society aim to unite Egyptians at Dalhousie, provide them with a home abroad, and showcase our Egyptian Culture. The society started in Fall 2019 by a senior political science student who was interested in bringing the Egyptian community together and in introducing Egyptian and Middle Eastern culture to students who have never had the experience. Four years later, our current executive and council team still maintain the same values and goals that motivated the founders.

Our events are always marketed as inclusive and as accessible as possible. We believe that Dalhousie Students benefit from our activities by participating in culturally enriching events at which they can experience different traditions, eat ethnic foods, and discuss social issues, all within a safe and enriching environment. We hold events and encourage everyone to join, whether they are from Egypt or not. We always try to plan the best and most inclusive events to introduce different cultures to Dalhousie Students and Faculty.
