RIYADH — King Abdulaziz Foundation for Research and Archives (Darah), represented by WikiDowen, started an enrichment initiative about Saudi women on the volunteer labor platform, with the goal of enriching the Arabic digital content material.

The initiative's focus areas have been revealed to be: the royal family's role in supporting comprehensive development, historical women figures from the Arabian Peninsula, female figures of Saudi women leaders in many fields, and Saudi women's contributions in various fields (education, health, economy, technology, volunteering, charitable work, social responsibility, basic sciences, humanitarian fields).

In addition, there were women who obtained local and international awards, as well as rights and regulations that supported the process of empowering Saudi women in personal status, rights, and employment statuses, among other things.

The Darah clarified that the first week will include the announcement and launch of the program through the volunteer work platform, followed by accepting the participants and clarifying the work process.

While the fifth week will include evaluating published articles, later the participants will be evaluated via the voluntary labor platform in the last week.

They also stated that the participants will receive volunteer hours through the HRSD's volunteer work platform, and that the initiative will run until the middle of Ramadan. They encouraged those interested to register and to enrich Arabic content in the free online encyclopedia Wikipedia
