about us
Beit Jeddé is a project by Boukra, an NGO promoting the preservation of our cultural and natural heritage,
as well as the dissemination of sustainable lifestyles.
Promoting Living Heritage is our philosophy:
We believe that Buildings and Traditions are not only meant for museums and history books,
they are building blocks of our shared identity.
For that reason, we bring them back to the center of our lives, and of our communities.
