As part of its endeavors to bridge the gap in digital Arabic content, ESCWA, in partnership with the World Summit Awards (WSA), launched at the AFSD-2021 the Digital Arabic Content Award for sustainable development in the Arab region.
Applications are open to institutions and entrepreneurs younger than 35 from Arab countries to submit digital Arabic content applications or products that have a clear impact on society. The call for applications will be open in May till October through a dedicated platform, details of which will be announced later.
The award, delivered annually, highlights the benefits of digital technologies, and promotes the creation of quality content related to the Sustainable Development Goals, especially that the share of Arabic content on the Internet does not exceed 1% of total global content.
