The Education Promotion Centre
Transforming the landscape of linguistic and cultural education in Sri Lanka through the strategic promotion of Arabic.
Who We Are
The Education Promotion Centre, operating within the unique cultural and educational landscape of Sri Lanka, stands as a dynamic and forward-looking organization committed to the promotion and enrichment of Arabic language education within schools and educational institutions across the nation. Our steadfast dedication to elevating the Arabic language as a valuable and globally significant skill marks us as a transformative presence in the realm of linguistic and cultural education in Sri Lanka.
Sri Lanka is a nation known for its remarkable cultural diversity, with multiple languages and traditions interwoven into its rich tapestry. While Sinhala and Tamil serve as the official languages, there is a growing recognition of the importance of Arabic as a language of global relevance. In this context, the Education Promotion Centre takes on a pivotal role.
Arabic, with its deep roots in history and its status as a language of diplomacy, trade, and religion, holds a profound global significance. As the world becomes increasingly interconnected, proficiency in Arabic language skills opens doors to enhanced cultural understanding, economic opportunities, and international engagement.
In the Sri Lankan context, we tailor our vision to cater to the unique needs and aspirations of our learners, educators, and institutions. Our aim is not just to promote Arabic language education but to integrate it harmoniously into the diverse educational fabric of Sri Lanka.
We view Arabic language education as a bridge—a bridge that connects cultures, fosters understanding, and enhances global competence. We believe that by offering access to the Arabic language and its cultural treasures, we contribute to the cultural enrichment of our society.
The Education Promotion Centre understands the evolving dynamics of Sri Lankan education. We are not only an advocate for Arabic language education but a facilitator, providing the necessary resources, guidance, and support to educators and institutions to ensure that Arabic language programs meet the standards and requirements of the Sri Lankan educational landscape.
