Phoenix Space and Arab Science Week will be working together to promote scientific literacy in the Middle East and North Africa region.

As a part of our work together we will:

  • Deliver educational opportunities to refugee and underprivileged children, youth, and adults to equip them with skills which may help their educational and employment opportunities in the future,
  • Promote STEM and science educational opportunities among youth, and
  • Raise awareness of the plight of refugees and underprivileged children when accessing education.

Arab Science Week is the largest virtual celebration of science and technology in the Middle East and North Africa region. Originally started as Egyptian Science Week in 2016, Arab Science Week now expands the activities of that concept regionally and includes numerous panel discussions, keynote speakers, public sessions, engaging competitions, and other programs.
