The university occupies a leading place in terms of its importance and role in the
developed societies and nations due to its awareness of the role it plays in advancing the
progress of societies and their development, based on its ability to contribute to highlighting
the national identity and its role in human history and the development of social awareness
and diagnosis and treatment of social and psychological problems Creative and human
resource development locally and nationally. This is manifested in attracting the university to
the highest categories of society, knowledge and culture and carrying out such research and
studies in all fields .. University is not separated from society, and its relationship with society
as a part of the whole. And from which no society can achieve the goals of comprehensive
development and meet its requirements in isolation from the university.
In this context, we will try to answer many questions related to the relationship that can
combine the university and society, the most important of which is: What is the reality of
universities today in the Arab society? Where does the university come from all the changes,
revolutions and revolutions that Arab societies know? How do Arab countries view the role of
the university and its contribution to development and the advancement of society? Will
activating its role be able to understand these communities and from it to reach a
comprehensive vision for the future and the project of a developed and strong Arab society?
