The Abu Dhabi Arabic Language Centre (ALC) has announced the launch of the fifth edition of its Research Grants Program 2025, Emirates News Agency (WAM) reported.

The program is designed to encourage and support innovative research in Arabic language studies and books, aiming to enhance the language’s standing, foster intellectual growth and advance scientific research. It also seeks to build a comprehensive Arabic research database that will serve both regional and global communities, WAM said.

The program offers six to eight grants each year with a total value of up to AED600,000 across several fields, including Arabic lexicon, academic curricula, literature and criticism, teaching Arabic to non-Arabic speakers, applied and computational linguistics, and editing of manuscripts in all fields of Arabic language.

Since its inception, the program has awarded 28 grants to researchers across a diverse range of disciplines, WAM said.

“The Research Grants Program reinforces the Centre’s efforts to establish a solid database for rigorous Arabic-language research and studies, in addition to advancing scientific research in Arabic and expanding its horizons, with a focus on originality and innovation,” ALC Chairman Dr. Ali bin Tamim said.

“We are confident that this edition of the program will bring significant contributions,” bin Tamim added. “Throughout its four previous editions, the program set key standards in Arabic-language writing and scientific research. It has become a vital platform for dedicated researchers who work diligently to bring fresh insights to the field of Arabic studies.”
