At Vision Libya, we believe in the power of culture, history, and identity to unite a nation and inspire progress. Our mission is to honour Libya’s rich civilisational legacy while empowering our people to build a future rooted in pride, resilience, and opportunity.
From the ancient wonders of Leptis Magna and Cyrene to the vibrant traditions of our modern communities, Libya’s story is one of strength, creativity, and continuity. Through storytelling, education, cultural preservation, and community-driven initiatives, we shine a light on the beauty and diversity of Libyan heritage — while supporting a new generation of leaders, artists, entrepreneurs, and changemakers.
Libya is home to six UNESCO World Heritage Sites, each a testament to the country’s extraordinary cultural and historical legacy. From the majestic Roman cities of Leptis Magna and Sabratha on the Mediterranean coast to the Greek ruins of Cyrene, these sites reflect ancient civilizations that once thrived in North Africa. The Rock-Art Sites of Tadrart Acacus in the Sahara showcase prehistoric carvings dating back thousands of years, while the Old Town of Ghadamès stands as a stunning example of traditional desert architecture. The Archaeological Site of Tébessa (Ghirza) captures Libya’s desert trade history. Together, these treasures tell the story of a land that has long been a crossroads of culture, commerce, and civilisation — and they remain vital symbols of Libya’s identity and global significance.
Libya’s food and culture reflect a rich tapestry woven from centuries of Mediterranean, Berber, Arab, and Saharan influences. Traditional dishes like bazeen, couscous, and shorba are deeply rooted in family and community life, often prepared during gatherings and celebrations. Olive oil, dates, lamb, and aromatic spices form the backbone of Libyan cuisine, offering a warm and hearty taste of the land. Music and dance, such as malouf and zar, carry ancestral rhythms that echo through generations, while storytelling, crafts, and poetry preserve the soul of Libyan identity. Together, Libya’s food and culture embody the warmth, resilience, and generosity of its people. In every flavour, song, and tradition, Libya’s cultural heartbeat continues to thrive and inspire.
