About the Award

The "Arab Private Schools Federation Award for Human Values," is an annual award presented by the Arab Private Schools federation (APSF), which is a unique opportunity for innovative students to shed light on the values of tolerance and equality in our societies. The award aims to encourage students to produce videos that raise awareness about the dangers of racism and promote equality, and dialogue. Through this initiative, we seek to build bridges of communication between Arab communities, enhancing social cohesion and stability. The award is available to all students enrolled in member schools of the APSF, with generous cash prizes: USD 5,000 or its equivalent in Omani Riyals for the first-place winner, USD 3,000 for second place, and USD 2,000 for third place.
