The Arab League Educational, Cultural and Scientific Organization (ALECSO) has launched a new initiative called Gifted Arabs that aims to discover and nurture talented young people and build their capacities in the Arab world towards a thriving future. The initiative is launched in partnership with the Saudi Arabian King Abdulaziz and His Companions Foundation for Giftedness and Creativity (Mawhiba).
On October 14, the Islamic World Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (ICESCO), launched ICESCO International Think Tank for Thought, Letters and Arts, under the theme, “Culture for Rethinking the World.” The platform is an international open-source digital platform that brings together scientists, researchers, and intellectuals from around the world, focusing on culture and science as a knowledge pillar and a steppingstone for understanding the current political, educational, social and economic phenomena. It also seeks to render culture and knowledge a key lever in light of the unfolding digital transformation and embrace a new cultural and creative approach likely to ensure linguistic and intellectual diversity.
