'It embodies a shared Arab cultural destiny that Sharjah actively contributes to, through a sustained commitment to knowledge, cultural awareness, and openness.'

Dr Abdulaziz Al Musallam, Chairman of the Sharjah Institute for Heritage, said: 'We hope this participation will serve as an exceptional platform for dialogue, helping to reinforce Sharjah's status as a capital of Arab and global culture, and marking a new milestone in the journey of knowledge and creative exchange between the Arab world and globally.'
