Amman: Jordan's Queen Rania has launched her very own YouTube channel to encourage global dialogue to counter Muslim and Arab stereotypes, the royal palace said on Monday.
Queen Rania vowed to work against current preconceptions, saying she wanted people to "know the real Arab world ... unedited, unscripted and unfiltered."
Her YouTube channel encourages viewers to express their opinions of the Middle East and discuss the stereotypes they may have.
"In a world where it's so easy to connect to one another, we still remain very much disconnected," the media savvy queen said in her YouTube video.
The statement quoted her as saying she wanted young people everywhere "to see the personal side of my region, to know the places and faces and rituals and culture that shape the part of the world I call home."
