[ THE KASA INITIATIVE ]

(KASA) IS A NON-PROFITABLE STUDENT-RUN ASSOCIATION IN KUWAIT UNIVERSITY’S DEPARTMENT OF ARCHITECTURE. THE ASSOCIATION HAS BEEN UP AND RUNNING SINCE THE YEAR 2000, ESTABLISHED BY STUDENTS THAT ARE NOW PROMINENT ARCHITECTS AND COA FACULTY MEMEBERS. KASA AIMS TO HELP STUDENTS BOTH ACADEMICALLY AND SOCIALLY. ONE OF THE MAIN EVENTS THAT KASA CURATES IS ITS ANNUAL EXHIBITION, WHERE THE WORKS OF STUDENTS ARE SHOWCASED TO THE PUBLIC, RAISING LOCAL AWARENESS ON THE SIGINFICANCE OF ARCHITECTURE, AS WELL AS PROVIDING A CREATIVE SPACE FOR THE STUDENTS’ PROJECTS TO GAIN THE EXPOSURE THEY DESERVE.
