Promoting Arabic in the Public Sphere

18 October 2019

A campaign by Sikkuy: The Association for the Advancement of Civic Equality to demand Arabic translation on public transportation is now showing results on buses and bus stops. Following Sikkuy’s calls for the Ministry of Transportation to ensure that signs at bus stops, on the front of buses, and inside buses are bilingual –- in Hebrew and in Arabic — the ministry has begun to implement this policy throughout the public transportation system.
