RIYADH: The Literature, Publishing and Translation Commission has launched a new program designed to boost the role of the nonprofit sector in the cultural landscape.
Known as Madeed, the initiative underscores the commission’s commitment to strengthening cultural partnerships with nonprofit entities and empowering them to contribute to the nation’s cultural transformation.
It seeks to create lasting community impact while supporting Vision 2030 goals in literature, publishing and translation, the Saudi Press Agency reported.
The program offers a multi-faceted support system, including mentorship, training, promotional support and grants.
Operating through two tracks — one for third-sector organizations and another for student clubs — it guides participants from application and evaluation to implementation and final assessment.
To qualify, applicants must be registered in the Kingdom and show readiness to launch initiatives aligned with literature, publishing and translation sectors.
