As part of its ongoing “Speak Arabic” initiative, an application to teach expatriate Egyptian children Arabic has been released by Egypt’s Ministry of Immigration and Egyptian Expatriates. Egyptian children abroad, she continued, are exposed to different cultures and languages ​​other than their mother tongue, and the programs will remind them of their identity. Makram described expatriate children as the “future of Egypt”, stressing the need to connect with them. According to Makram, the app aims to foster the concept of Egyptian identity among expatriate children while teaching them the language, customs, values, and traditions. The “Speak Arabic” application is level-based, with users earning points in order to level up.
