Knowledge Models Lab

How has "Sabr" contributed to designing an integrated field knowledge initiative to enable researchers and academics to adopt the composite explanatory model, and restore human centrality in scientific research away from the material reductionism of dominant Western models?

Project Overview

The Knowledge Models Lab is an integrated field knowledge initiative that aims to enable researchers and academics to adopt the composite explanatory model in their scientific research, and restore human centrality in the research process, away from the material reductionism imposed by the dominant Western models on the Arab academic system.

The project is distinguished by a foundational phased methodology inspired by Abdel Wahab El-Messiri's interpretive philosophy. It begins with establishing intellectual positions, proceeds through cognitive preparation and methodological equipping, and culminates in practical field application. This ensures the comprehensive and consistent building of researchers' capacities, enabling them to produce authentic explanatory models that reflect the civilizational context of Arab and Islamic societies.
