Recent initiatives undertaken by MBRGI include the 'One Million Arab Coders' project, which aims to extend free coding training to a million young people across the Arab world; the Arab Reading Challenge which, and the Arabic eLearning Challenge, which saw volunteers translate 5,000 maths and science online learning videos into Arabic.
