Dubai, UAE: The Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Knowledge Foundation (MBRF) signed a
Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Akdemistanbul Language Center to strengthen and

promote the use of the Arabic language.

The MoU was signed virtually by His Excellency Jamal bin Huwaireb, CEO of the MBRF, and Dr.
Muhammed Ağirakça, Director General of the Akdemistanbul Language Center. The MoU seeks to
reinforce the strategic partnerships between the two parties by enhancing cooperation in knowledge

resource management, launching initiatives, and organizing research and knowledge forums, which will
foster an institutional culture that promotes knowledge sharing. The ‘Bil Arabi’ initiative launched by the
MBRF in 2013 is significant in this regard, as it encourages Arabs to use their mother tongue on the web
and social media channels, as well as contributes to preserving and advancing the Arabic language.

The MoU further stipulates that the parties may organize the ‘Bil Arabi Dialogues,’ one of the ongoing

activities of the ‘Bil Arabi’ initiative throughout the year. It additionally outlines the exchange of
publications, books, periodicals, and research pertaining to the Arabic language, establishing
