The New Mosaic

The New Mosaic is a social movement aimed at supporting nonĀ­partisan and nonsectarian thought and growth among the community of The Sham.

Our mission is to promote our shared culture and history, encourage the collaboration of ideas and learning, build professional growth for community advancement, and nurture a common understanding of equality and justice.


Who we are

A group of leaders, thinkers, and activists leading the next generation of Shami descendants.

The New Mosaic is a US-based, social movement to connect the diaspora and descendants of Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, and Palestine.

We are the Fertile Crescent, the Levant, the Mashriq, Al Sham.

One land, one people.


Our Land

Historically, our people were confined to this region due to the natural borders it provided. To the north, we are bordered by the Southeastern Taurus Mountains; to the east, by the Tigris and Euphrates rivers; to the west, by the Mediterranean Sea; and to the south, by the Arabian Desert.
