The Cultural Attaché at the Saudi Embassy in Washington, Dr. Fawzi Bukhari, underscored the significant role played by the scientific and life experience sharing among scholarship students.

Bukhari made the remarks in a dialogue session on experiences and ventures held by the attaché in its headquarters in Washington in cooperation with Princess Alanoud Foundation.

In his speech, Bukhari highlighted the knowledge and life experiences that scholarship students acquire as well as their scientific, academic, social, and voluntary contributions.

Bukhari commended the guidance and advice provided by experienced Saudi male and female students through student clubs to their fellow newly-arrived scholarship students.

He added that such efforts by the scholarship students fall within the endeavors of the attaché to raise awareness among scholarship students in order to achieve the best results and contribute to scientific output and human experiences.

The session addressed vital topics, including how scholarship students overcome challenges at the beginning of their mission, presenting essential legal and practical guidelines.

The session also discussed academic excellence, the benefits of volunteering in student clubs, and also the importance that students work both within and outside educational institutions in order to discover and develop their personal skills.

The Islamic World Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (ICESCO) has congratulated Saudi Arabia on the inscription of the Cultural Landscape of the Al-Faw Archaeological Area on UNESCO's World Heritage List.

The area in Wadi Al-Dawasir, at the intersection of the Empty Quarter desert and the Tuwaiq mountain range, is home to almost 12,000 archaeological remains and has a history of human habitation stretching back more than 6,000 years.
In a statement on Sunday, ICESCO commended the success of the Kingdom, represented by the Ministry of Culture, the Heritage Commission, and the Saudi National Commission for Education, Culture, and Science, in achieving the goals of Vision 2030 related to the number of sites registered on the World Heritage List.
ICESCO lauded the distinguished partnership it shares with Saudi Arabia in protecting cultural heritage. The organization also underscored its coordination with the Kingdom in establishing the necessary measures for preserving historical heritage and working on its development.
