Team

  • Riyadh Al Balushi (Translation Lead) - lawyer from Oman
  • Hala Essalmawi - Egypt CC Legal Lead
  • Faiza Souissi - teacher from Algeria
  • Sadeek Hasna - lawyer from Syria
  • Pierre El Khoury - Lebanon CC Legal Lead
  • Mohammed Al Khater - lawyer from Qatar
  • Ahmed M. AbouZaid - lawyer from Egypt

The Arab world has two regional coordinators, the one coordinating this project is Naeema Zarif.

Word choice
The initial draft was prepared as a fresh translation without using the previous ports available in Arabic for Egypt and Jordan. As Arabic is one of the official languages of the UN, the draft relied on the official Arabic translation of popular IP conventions and treaties, namely:

  • Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works
  • WIPO Copyright Treaty
  • Beijing Treaty on Audiovisual Performances
  • Marrakesh Treaty to Facilitate Access to Published Works by Visually Impaired Persons and Persons with Print Disabilities

Egypt 3.0 ported licenses were used in limited cases as a reference for difficult translations.
