Executive Summary

In 2008, Ulfah Arts undertook research in Britain amongst Muslim female artists to understand what’s stopping their progress. The findings where presented at the World Music Expo, in Seville, where our campaign was launched to a world audience. An overwhelming support from the world music scene was noted, with examples of good practice and the definite need for support to help Muslim women enjoy, create and express music. This research has informed the development of this project and its associated programming.
