The General Secretariat of the Arab League's Social Affairs Sector, Culture and Dialogue of Civilizations Department has celebrated the World Arabic Language Day, established under the United Nation General Assembly Resolution 3190 of 1973.

The resolution has set December 18 as the annual World Arabic Language Day and recognized Arabic as one of the official and working languages of the UN.

The celebration included the participation of Deputy Secretary General of King Salman Global Academy for Arabic Language Dr. Ibrahim Abanmi, along with heads of numerous Arab and regional organizations, leaders of Arab federations, academics, and experts in the field of Arabic language.

The event highlighted an important segment focused on the Arab strategy to promote the Arabic language, emphasizing its role as a symbol of Arab identity and a crucial tool for development. An action plan was also introduced to facilitate the achievement of these objectives.

This initiative follows a decision made by the UN Economic and Social Council in September, which instructed the general secretariat to refresh the strategy and its action plan in collaboration with various stakeholders. The goal is to adapt to global changes and address the ongoing challenges that the Arabic language and identity face today.
The celebration also included discussions on artificial intelligence and a focus on classical Arabic poetry.
