JEDDAH: The Ministry of Culture, in collaboration with the Lenobadir volunteer and community partnership program and the Athr Foundation, has launched the Ship of Tolerance initiative in Historic Jeddah during Ramadan.

It aims to promote shared human values through the arts and foster tolerance and coexistence among children and families, the Saudi Press Agency reported on Wednesday.

The initiative offers an educational and cultural experience that reflects the area’s unique character as a UNESCO World Heritage site.

As part of this global art project, children will create artworks representing acceptance and dialogue, the SPA stated.

The Royal Institute of Traditional Arts will hold traditional craft workshops throughout Ramadan, linking the initiative’s values with local heritage and enhancing visitors’ connection to the region’s identity.
