| | The experience of perpetual oppression through the centuries in Kurdistan, the denial of Kurdish identity, the linguistic and cultural assimilation of the Kurdish people by banning their language and education and publication in their mother tongue, the annihilation of historical culture by destroying and appropriating music, folklore, legends and myths deprived the Kurds from their most important vehicles of linguistic and artistic expression. | | | 
| The mission of International Cultural Foundation Sivan Perwer is to give a voice to the unvoiced Kurdish People and its language, art and culture which have been outlawed for decades by the repressive nation states of the Middle East, and to endorse the indispensable role of the arts to connect cultures and build peace among people.
