Qiyam Community is a community-led organisation that brings together education, culture, family support and meaningful belonging.
Qiyam was created in response to a clear need.
Today, Qiyam is growing into a wider community home.
A place where migrant families can learn, connect and belong.
Hiba Sallakh founded Qiyam Community with the belief that children growing up away from their family’s homeland need more than Arabic and Qur’an lessons. They also need a place to belong, build friendships and grow with confidence in their identity and values.
Hiba holds a Master’s degree in Civil Engineering. She later moved into education and is currently studying for a Master of Educational Leadership at Auckland University of Technology (AUT), New Zealand. She brings together academic learning and hands-on work with children, young people and mothers in Auckland.
She leads the development of Qiyam’s programmes and curricula alongside teachers, volunteers and local partners. Her vision is for Qiyam to become more than a weekend learning programme: a community where families learn, connect and take part, and where the next generation grows with confidence and belonging.
