Doha: Qatar Foundation has concluded the inaugural BilAraby Summit, following two days of rich dialogue, artistic expression, and cultural exchange that brought together more than 800 participants from across the Arab region and beyond.

Held at Multaqa (Education City Student Center), the Summit created a vibrant space for over 20 speakers, panelists, and storytellers from diverse backgrounds who explored how the Arabic language can remain a living force in today's world.

Dr. Abdul Wahid Zainal, a speaker at the Summit and founder of Camel Code Academy, said: "The BilAraby Summit spread awareness of the importance of enhancing Arabic's presence in the digital world. We hope this marks the beginning of real progress toward that goal.

"Our project focuses on teaching children about technology, one of today's most critical skills. We help children explore areas of study such as artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, and coding. Since our children spend so much time on screens, we want to give them meaningful educational alternatives that empower them to become creators, not just consumers."
