About us

Kudwa is a non-profit association that is self-managed and led by its community.

We open doors to migrants, refugees, displaced people, and anyone seeking a sense of belonging. 

We provide spaces and opportunities to connect, learn, grow, and become part of a community.

Based in Barcelona with delegations in Zaragoza and Albacete, we foster harmony in society, through programs that promote inclusion and active participation in our new communities.

Mission

Kudwa means “role model” in Arabic.

We are an open door to a future filled with hope for migrants, refugees, and anyone seeking a sense of belonging.

Vision

We work to build a more inclusive, equal, and just society by celebrating diversity, intercultural coexistence, and active participation.

Our door is always open, without locks, inviting everyone to come in.
It creates a new family, a community.
It’s where relationships are formed, and connections are made.
A transforming door that builds bridges
A door is a journey, one that changes people.
