QFI Launches 2025 Arabic Short Story Contest

QFI has announced the launch of the 2025 Arabic Short Story Contest, designed to encourage high school students to enhance their Arabic language skills while expressing their creativity. The contest invites students to respond to an open-ended prompt, providing them with an opportunity to practice their language abilities and explore their imagination.

The primary goal of the contest is to foster a deeper connection to the Arabic language, offering both heritage/native speakers and world language learners a platform to showcase their talents. By participating, students will not only improve their language proficiency but also gain confidence in using Arabic for creative expression.

The competition is open to high school and secondary school students in grades 6-12 across the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Ireland, Italy, Sweden, and Spain.

Students are encouraged to submit their entries by May 11th to participate in this exciting opportunity.
