Digital
Initiative Launched to Preserve Omani Traditional Games

Muscat,
10 Sep (ONA) — The Children’s Culture Center, part of the Ministry of
Culture, Sports, and Youth, has launched a pioneering digital initiative in
Oman to integrate traditional Omani games into a modern digital environment.
The initiative aims to preserve intangible cultural heritage and enhance its
relevance for younger generations by using modern technology to revive Omani
cultural heritage through an app featuring traditional games.

Omani
culture is a mirror of the Omani community’s identity and authenticity,
resulting from a rich and deeply rooted civilization spanning thousands of
years. It serves as a bridge connecting the past to the present and fostering a
sense of belonging and pride in one’s identity. It is also a fundamental pillar
in building the present and shaping the future, undertaking a role in
supporting sustainable development, introducing Oman to the world, and
highlighting its civilized status regionally and internationally with its
inherent human principles of tolerance, coexistence, and peace.
