The New Face of Syria website is inspired by the values and principles of Syria’s new leaders. It shines a light on the transformation taking place under the inspiration of President Ahmad al-Sharaa, whose vision is to “replace oppression with justice, destruction with construction, ignorance with knowledge, and suffering with mercy.”
The purpose of the website is to deepen public understanding of the Syrian people and their extraordinary resilience, courage, and creativity as they rebuild their country amid ongoing hardship. It carries a message of hope, offering examples of good governance at a time when humanity is urgently seeking justice, dignity, and enlightened leaders.
The creators of the website are a group of volunteers from around the world who feel called to make known the unfolding story of the new Syria. The country’s remarkable progress since its liberation—based on the goals of unity, inclusiveness, equality under law, peace, and reconciliation—offers a living model for the transformational reforms urgently needed in institutions, governments, and societies across the globe.
