Based in the ancient city of Alexandria on Egypt’s Nile River, the Forgotten Writers Foundation discusses global, social and humane causes through art. It releases story competitions on topics that were never tackled before through literature, topics that are challenging for writers, interesting and new for readers. See Forgotten Writer’s 2012/2013 play-writing competition results for “Women’s Domination” and the 2011/2012 competition results book publication that collected the submitted plays about ” The Resurrection of Ancient Egypt”.
