The Beirut Art Film Festival (BAFF) 2024 took place from November 25 to December 6, 2024, at the Leïla Turqui Amphitheater of the Oriental Library in Beirut. The Philippe Jabre Association (APJ) was an official partner of this event that brought together art and culture enthusiasts from around the world.
For its 10th edition, themed “Stop War”, 25 films were presented, along with an exhibition by Hady Zaccak on the cinematic history of Tripoli and conferences with directors, producers, and artists from various backgrounds.
“The 10th edition of the Beirut Art Film Festival (BAFF) will be held against all odds in a Lebanon ravaged by half a century of war,” said Alice Mogabgab, Artistic Director, as she introduced BAFF 2024, which had already been postponed. “We need to overcome fear and renew our trust in humankind, which is capable of things other than destruction and violence, such as producing art and culture or, in other words, producing beauty."
The APJ is proud to have supported this exceptional festival. The arts and cultural initiatives are important to maintain, particularly in times of difficulty. They play a crucial role in reconciliation, peace, and societal prosperity.
A big thank you to the organizers of BAFF for their commitment, all the other sponsors and supporters, and of course to the artists and participants who made this edition possible. Their passion for art and culture is an inspiration for all of us.
The academic year has come to an end (or almost) for our students around the world, supported by the APJ. This summer period is the perfect time to take stock:
The Association Philippe Jabre supported 259 young Lebanese, including 150 students enrolled in universities abroad and 109 in Lebanon.
Education is a priority for the APJ, and our mission is essential in enabling young people to pursue their studies, learn, build their future, and contribute positively to our society.
Every year, we support Lebanese students in their university studies at prestigious institutions.
Since our founding in 2001, we are proud to have supported 2,741 Lebanese students. Together, let’s continue investing in education and making a real difference in the lives of young people.
Congratulations to all the students who have successfully completed their year! APJ wishes you a wonderful summer!
Youth represents the future of Lebanon. They carry the hopes and aspirations of our country towards a better future.
It was with deep conviction that Philippe Jabre, guest of honor and ambassador of the Université Saint-Joseph de Beyrouth (USJ), attended the USJ alumni dinner on April 5, 2024 in Paris.
The aim of the event is to raise funds to help young people continue their studies. Proudly wearing the colors of his beloved alma mater, Philippe Jabre gave a hopeful speech on the importance of maintaining academic excellence. The Philippe Jabre Association has been supporting education and health in Lebanon for over 20 years. Thanks to its continued commitment, more than 3,000 students benefit from financial support every year, including over 900 currently enrolled at USJ.
Today, the USJ is a leading educational institution in Lebanon, forming the bright minds who will shape Lebanon's future. APJ is proud to contribute to the mission and development of the university.
