Tanween Mega Challenge <\/strong><\/p>\n

The Tanween challenges serve as the flagship initiative of \u201cIthra\u201d, the largest creativity platform in Saudi Arabia. They offer an ideal opportunity for emerging creatives and experienced professionals to collaborate with top experts in translating their concepts into executable programmes and initiatives. Part of the Tanween Challenges, the Tanween Mega Challenge comprises three key tracks, namely, education, food security, and energy.<\/p>\n

Reem Jassem, Manager of Special Initiatives at Kalimat Foundation, in collaboration with Alia Al Rawashdeh, education in emergency expert in Jordan, supervised the participants in the education track, guiding them to develop and present effective and executable solutions that cater to the needs of refugee communities and displaced individuals in accessing knowledge resources, and achieving sustainable learning opportunities for children and the youth. This included promoting literacy efforts, social integration, and preserving Arab values and culture.<\/p>\n

During the event, Reem outlined KF’s \u201cPledge a Library\u201d initiative, which delivers educational resources in Arabic language for refugee children worldwide. Since its launch, the initiative has provided 15,700 Arabic books, benefitting over 100,000 children across 22 host countries.<\/p>\n

Inspiring models in overcoming challenges<\/strong><\/p>\n

Commenting on the Foundation’s participation in the challenge, Reem Jassem said, \u201cKalimat Foundation assists refugee communities in improving their quality of life and contributing to the development of communities by providing knowledge and learning resources for children and the youth through collaborations with leading international institutions. Our participation as knowledge experts in this challenge is aimed at sharing our successful experience in \u201cPledge a Library\u201d initiative and enhancing our regional and global partnerships to pass on our know-how and support programmes that benefit refugees, and children in particular.\u201d<\/p>\n
