The officials of the World Organization for al-Azhar Graduates (WOAG) received Dr. Gina al-Fiki, the Acting President of The Academy of Scientific Research & Technology (ASRT), Dr. Amr Farouq, Assistant President of the Academy for Technological Development and the accompanying delegation. The visit came to enhance ways of cooperation between the two institutions and to add to the string of success including the production of five cartoon series which are: “Noor and the Gate of History”, “Noor and the Super Journeys”, “Noor and Wonder Book” and “Noor and the Happy Planet”. The series, composed by Dr. Noha Abbas, was such a success, that it received Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Global Award as the best art and intellectual work to serve the Arabic language.
The ASRT’s delegation was received by Dr. Mohammad al-Mahrasawy, Mr. Osama Yaseen, WOAG Vice-Chairmen, Dr. Noha Abbas, Noor Magazine’s Editor in-Chief and Dr. Tareq Suliman, Former Vice-President of al-Azhar University.
The meeting tackled ways of cooperation to develop animation industry and to produce a thoughtful and meaningful content to develop the culture of the Egyptian child. This springs from the Academy’s belief in its national role to qualify the Egyptian youth, to contribute in spreading the religious and scientific cultures and to boost the genuine values of the Egyptian society. This comes within the efforts exerted by Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research to raise public awareness and support the art production targeting children, pursuant to the national strategy2023 of Higher Education and Scientific Research that aims to build the Egyptian citizen and to raise his/her awareness.
