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 knowledge and scientific activities, joint community service projects, and carrying
out awareness-raising initiatives in the media.

H.E. Jamal Bin Huwaireb expressed his delight in signing the MoU with Turkey's largest
language education center. He added that the MoU aligns with the MBRF's goals of

knowledge dissemination, elevating the Arabic language's role, fostering its use, and

advancing the language's position in global society and among Arab youth in particular. Bin
Huwaireb pointed out the MBRF's constant efforts to expand its collaboration with institutions,
such as the Akdemistanbul Language Center, to preserve and promote Arabic. He further

mentioned that the MBRF constantly seeks avenues to launch initiatives and projects to
preserve the Arabic language, emphasizing that the MBRF supports the intellectual and

knowledge product of Arabic. His Excellency pointed out that promoting the status of the
Arabic language is a top priority for the MBRF.

The MoU was signed in conjunction with World Arabic Language Day and the launch of the

'Bil Arabi' initiative, which calls for improved collaboration for disseminating knowledge. The
initiative entails expanding the digital Arabic content via web search engines and digital

libraries owned by both parties, as well as hosting training workshops through visual
communication programs to teach non-Arabic speakers. Additionally, it seeks to encourage

Arab youth to speak Arabic among themselves by promoting the language's use on websites
and social media accounts, as well as showcasing Arab contributions to cultural development

throughout history via accessible channels and pertinent content. The agreement further
entails translating studies and research from other languages into Arabic, co-hosting pertinent
conferences in Arabic, and hosting a variety of events and activities related to the 'Bil Arabi'

initiative.
