Tanween: "Collaboration"

Tanween is back focusing on “Collaboration” as a part of the creative process that can be explored in so many ways, but ultimately it is an unavoidable action. At some point we will interact, we will give and take, we will intersect and impact others to be able to move onwards. Collaboration has been integral to humanity’s success but is perhaps dismissed, and its power forgotten. Tanween 2022 recognizes the need for a collaboration of cultures, with nature, by technology and for society.
