RIYADH: The King Salman Global Academy for Arabic Language and the Saleh Abdullah Kamel Humanitarian Foundation signed an agreement on Saturday to promote and enhance Arabic-language education for children.
The memorandum of understanding also seeks to “activate the role of strategic partnerships between the government sector and the nonprofit sector,” the Saudi Press Agency reported.
Hamed bin Mohammed Fayez, deputy minister of culture and member of the academy’s board of trustees, attended the signing ceremony between the two parties, who were represented by Abdullah bin Saleh Al-Washmi, secretary-general of the academy, and Hammam Zare, CEO of the foundation.
The academy and the foundation will collaborate to create educational platforms and tools to enrich children’s Arabic-language learning experience.
The MoU will lead to the creation of an illustrated digital audio dictionary specifically designed for kindergarten-aged children, a linguistic-education guidance manual for families, educational series, and “enriching materials for Arab and Arabic-learning children.”
It will also “support digital innovations in Arabic-language education for children,” according to the SPA.
The academy’s goal in signing such agreements is “to enhance the usage and proficiency of Arabic, promote and preserve the language, and ensure its transmission to future generations as a vital part of Saudi national identity,” in line with the Human Capability Development Program, a part of Saudi Vision 2030.
