Organized since 2008 in the Arab world, the Arab Robotics Championship is a competition that brings together students from educational institutions from all Arab countries. It aims in particular to encourage participants to take an interest in technology, mathematics, science and engineering, to share their experiences and to develop their skills in scientific research, critical thinking, problem solving, programming and artificial intelligence. The tournament also highlights the role of robotics in education in the Arab world and brings young people closer to the civilization, customs and traditions of the host country, through tourist visits and the exhibition that accompanies the competition.
