This section selects which side of the website (English or Arabic) the document should appear. English documents should appear on the English side and Arabic documents should appear on the Arabic side. So, select the language of the document you are uploading and it will appear on the proper side.

If it is necessary to have a document on the Arabic side that is in English (or, vice versa), be sure that the document title (next field) link appears in the language of the webpage (see the next field)

Do NOT select a language that does not match the document language (and, therefore the corresponding side of the website), unless:

• The document is may be of considerable interest to those that are visiting the webpage for information, even if it is not in the preferred language. In this case, the title of the document must be entered according to the language of the webpage with the alternate language in parentheses. For example, if a document is in Arabic, but should appear on the English side of the website due to the lack of an English equivalent, the document title in the next field should be: Arab Internet Governance Forum (IGF), 2nd meeting information note (Arabic)

If it is an Arabic document, but will appear on the English portion of the website, the document title would be:

Technology Transfer for Water Resources in the Arab Region (Arabic).

The same applies for English documents appearing on the Arabic portion of the website:
