People of Cairo was born from a longing to belong, in a city that moves faster than its people can catch their breath.
It emerged from the spaces between conversations, from the eyes that wander yet always return, from the realization that identity in Cairo is never fixed, it’s fluid, nomadic, and constantly rewritten. In a world where mobility has become the new permanence, People of Cairo exists to ground that motion, to offer a place where belonging can be felt, not claimed.
It gathers stories of those who drift between places, professions, and dreams, yet remain bound by the invisible threads of this city. Every piece published is an attempt to translate Cairo’s pulse, its contrasts, contradictions, and quiet harmonies, into meaning.
Through people’s lives, ideas, and creations, the platform explores how communities form, evolve, and redefine home in an ever-shifting landscape. More than a magazine, People of Cairo is a cultural record, an evolving dialogue between the city and its people.
An initiative by MKY Communications, it stands at the intersection of culture and communication, giving voice to a generation of nomads searching for connection, identity, and a renewed sense of place within Cairo’s living rhythm.
To build a space where the people of Cairo, locals, wanderers, and nomads alike, can rediscover belonging through stories that reflect who they are and where they come from. People of Cairo envisions a city where voices are not lost in noise, but echoed through meaning; where culture is not consumed, but lived;
and where communication becomes an act of connection, not persuasion. Our vision is to document the living rhythm of Cairo and to nurture a new cultural consciousness, one that celebrates difference, embraces evolution, and anchors people to the city that moves within them.
We would love to hear from you.
