District in Lebanon, and MENA EdTech Alliance in Lebanon has signed a joint
Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to establish the Talal Abu-Ghazaleh Knowledge

such an agreement comes in line with Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh’s goals and plans toward

regions. These efforts will continue to open additional knowledge stations
across  the country to spread digital knowledge among the Lebanese people
in accordance with Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh’s directions.

Global (TAG.Global) has recently signed several agreements with Lebanese
ministries, universities and schools in addition to the Lebanese Armed Forces
with the aim of supporting the government's digital transformation strategy and
fighting digital illiteracy. So far, nine knowledge stations have been
established and inaugurated, and according to the plan, the number will be
doubled before the end of this year.
