Sheikh Mohammed reflected on the transformative impact of the Challenge, stating,

"Our new generations have proven themselves ready to carry the torch of Arab civilisation and its timeless language."

Now in its eighth year, the initiative has engaged 28.2 million students from 229,620 schools in 50 countries, further demonstrating its significant influence.

The ceremony will highlight top achievers across several categories, including the ‘Arab Reading Champion 2024’, People of Determination Champion, Best School, and Outstanding Supervisor. Winners will receive monetary awards, with the Arab Reading Champion earning AED500,000.
