According to the Times of Oman, the 'Rural Dhofar 2026' exhibition is scheduled to launch tomorrow at Atin Square in the Dhofar region. The event is designed to serve as a platform for supporting and empowering rural women in the area by providing them with opportunities to showcase their products and enhance their economic participation.
The exhibition highlights the ongoing efforts within the Sultanate of Oman to foster entrepreneurship and preserve traditional crafts among rural communities. By hosting the event at Atin Square, organizers aim to draw both local residents and visitors, creating a marketplace that bridges the gap between rural artisans and the broader consumer base in Salalah.
This initiative is part of a wider regional strategy to promote sustainable development and economic independence for women in rural governorates. Officials have indicated that the exhibition will feature a variety of local goods, ranging from traditional textiles and handicrafts to agricultural products, reflecting the cultural heritage and economic potential of the Dhofar region. The event is expected to continue its run as part of the broader seasonal activities in the area.
