Sharjah 24: The Poetry House in Marrakech is hosting the inaugural "Al-Dad" Arab Forum on Digitalisation on December 12th. Held in collaboration with the Faculty of Arabic Language, this first session of the "Al-Dad Arab Forum" focuses on "The Arabic Language and the Challenges of Digitalisation." The event is part of activities commemorating World Arabic Language Day.

Forum highlights and objectives

The discussions will feature contributions from Arabic language researchers and professionals, alongside poetry readings by Amina El Merini. The forum aims to examine the challenges facing the Arabic language in the age of digitalisation, promoting its online presence and safeguarding it from the influence of the "language of digitalisation."

Adapting Arabic to the digital era

The forum also seeks to explore how Arabic can adapt to technological changes and how poetry and literary creativity can help people engage with their culture in the digital world. The initiative is designed to ensure the language remains vibrant and successfully transitions into the digital future.
