Simurgh Centre

Simurgh Centre is a project by Zubaan, initiated and supported by Goethe-Institut / Max Mueller Bhavan. It works to create exchanges and conversations across the Afghan diaspora worldwide, and to connect Afghan, German and Indian artists. In the three years since its inception, it has also developed into a safe cultural space for the Afghans residing around it, a space for both structured and unstructured conversations.
