During the 49th edition of the Cairo International Book Fair held this month, the Ministry of Antiquities has set up a special programme for children. The programme, which was given the title “Leave them with us and enjoy your time”, aims at promoting antiquity awareness of children while their parents browse through the various pavilions at the fair. Ayman Ashmawi, who heads the Ministry’s Antiquities Awareness Department, says that the children’s programme includes workshops to teach about Egyptian language, a contest about the pyramids, and a simulation of archaeological excavation.

The 49th edition of the Cairo Book Fair, which is held annually at the Cairo exhibition grounds in Nasr City, Cairo, runs till mid-February. Alongside its activity as a fair for books, it acts as a venue for a plethora of cultural activities, seminars and book signing events.

Watani started as an Egyptian weekly Sunday newspaper published in Cairo. The word Watani is Arabic for “My Homeland”. The paper was founded in 1958 by the prominent Copt Antoun Sidhom (1915 – 1995), who strove for the establishment of a civil, democratic society in Egypt, where all Egyptians would enjoy full citizenship rights regardless of their religious denomination. To this day when Watani is published as a weekly paper and an online news site, the objective remains the same. Those in charge of Watani view this role as a patriotic all-Egyptian vocation. Special attention is given to shedding light on Coptic culture and tradition as authentically Egyptian, this being a topic largely disregarded or little-understood by Egypt’s media. Watani is deeply dedicated to offer its readers high quality, extensive, objective, credible and well-researched media coverage, with special focus on Coptic issues, culture, heritage, and contribution to Egyptian society.
