To mark the date, it will put out a research on Arab immigrants in Brazil on July 22. This is the first-ever study to delve exclusively into the subject. It has determined the percentage of Arab descendants in Brazil, and the educational, social and professional profiles of immigrants and descendants.<\/p>\n<p>The July 22 release will take place in a hybrid event, partly held onsite at the Chamber\u2019s S\u00e3o Paulo headquarters, but mostly online due to the novel coronavirus pandemic. The event will be open to people interested in the subject, in Brazil and elsewhere. Further details will be out soon.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_275775\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-275775\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/sedeccab-300x200-1.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-275775 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/sedeccab-300x200-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-275775\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Arab Chamber was established 68 years ago<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cThis a contribution of the Arab Chamber to the community,\u201d the organization\u2019s president Rubens Hannun told ANBA. The information will enable people to find out about the true size of the Arab community in Brazil and its insertion in Brazilian society. \u201cWe wish to help so that despite being in Brazil, this community will not lose touch with its Arab identity or its roots,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The history of the Arab Chamber is intrinsically tied to Arab immigration. The Chamber was established by immigrants and descendants, and it is helmed by them until this day. Its purpose is to connect Brazil and the Arab countries. \u201cNowadays Arab countries are the third biggest destination for Brazilian products, and Brazil is a major pillar of food security in Arab countries. The Arab Chamber plays a central role in that,\u201d said Hannun.<\/p>\n<p>Aside from working to connect countries\u2019 economies by showcasing and promoting business opportunities, the Chamber works to build governmental rapport and enhance cultural ties. Apart from its S\u00e3o Paulo offices, the Chamber has a branch in Itaja\u00ed, Santa Catarina, and an international office in Dubai, UAE. Plans are in place to open new units in other Arab countries soon.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Translated by Gabriel Pomerancblum<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-275766\">Rodrigo Rodrigues\/Arab-Brazilian Chamber<\/div>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-275775\">Rodrigo Rodrigues\/Arab Chamber<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The organization will have its anniversary on July 2, 2020.
