Following this, 2022 was declared the "Year of Saudi Coffee", showcasing the beverage's cultural and economic importance. The campaign emphasized Saudi Arabia's coffee and its unique qualities and role in the nation's heritage.
The "Year of Arabic Poetry" in 2023 built on these successes and accentuated its enduring influence on Arab culture.
This year, the "Year of the Camel", was recently announced by the Cabinet, acknowledging the animal's deep-rooted historical and cultural significance to the Arabian Peninsula. Camels represent a significant aspect of the nation's heritage.
These initiatives, initiated by the Ministry of Culture, are aimed at preserving and promoting Saudi culture on both a national and global scale, underscoring their significance.
