Modern Discussion (Arabic: الحوار المتمدن Al-Hewar Al-Mutamaden) is a non-governmental, non-profit, civil society organization that discusses the issues of culture and media, the propagation of political, social, cultural, human and progressive modern awareness, and democracy in the Arab world. The main website's full name is "Al-Hewar Al-Mutamaden - Modern discussion", and it is the first left-wing-secular electronic daily newspaper in the Arab world. The website won the Ibn Rushd Prize for freedom of thought in 2010 as the best and most influential Arabic site.[1][2][3] Due to its bold attitude and its defense of freedom of opinion and expression, the rights of minorities, women, and human rights were blocked in many Arab countries.[4][5]
