This sponsorship reflects Dar Almandumah’s commitment to supporting and encouraging scholarly research in the field of education and to building bridges of cooperation among educational institutions in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and other Arab countries. The company’s General Manager, Dr. Ali bin Shuwaish Al-Shuwaish, also participated in the press conference held for this event at the headquarters of Khabara Al-Tarbiyah Company, in the presence of the Association’s President, Dr. Rashid bin Hussein Al-Abdulkarim.
