The King Salman Global Academy for Arabic Language (KSGAAL) and the Union of OIC News Agencies (UNA) have concluded a virtual symposium focused on promoting Arabic content at official news agencies in non-Arabic-speaking countries within the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC).

The symposium targeted official news agencies providing Arabic content services on their platforms in Azerbaijan, Afghanistan, Uzbekistan, Pakistan, Türkiye, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Malaysia, and Chad.

Secretary-General of KSGAAL Abdullah bin Saleh Al-Washmi stated that the symposium aimed to enrich Arabic content across various media platforms, stimulate Arabic content producers, provide support, and enhance their knowledge and media proficiency.

The symposium featured two specialized panel discussions: The first addressed challenges facing Arabic content in the targeted news agencies, while the second presented KSGAAL's vision for enhancing this content.

The event concluded with several recommendations, emphasizing the need to enhance Arabic content in international media, particularly in news agencies, due to the pivotal role of media in language dissemination.

The recommendations also highlighted supporting the Arabic language's digital presence and fostering collaboration between KSGAAL and UNA to organize forums that strengthen Arabic language representation in news agencies of non-Arabic-speaking Islamic countries.
