The Covid19 health crisis has caused a linguistic identity crisis one. Indeed, several challengers and dynamic issues have been employed in the process of language learning. However, the Arabic language, which is used by both native and non-native speakers, has not fully taken advantage of these challenges. Moocs are an innovative solution that responds to these challenges, thus promoting progress in E-learning and guaranteeing a rewarding affiliation with digital humanities. In this context, we propose the "Arabic Foreign Language MOOC Platform -AFL Mooc" which ensures the learning of Arabic as a foreign language. The training offered is aimed at a very wide audience and constitutes support for the transfer of skills and knowledge in the Mediterranean area via digital practice. The access to this platform does not require any prerequisites and offers subscribers, regardless of their professional and cultural situation, a desire to learn and discover the Arabic language.

This enriches linguistic knowledge and enhances the Mediterranean linguistic patrimony. Secondly, AFL Mooc promotes the human development of participants regardless of geographical or socio-cultural constraints, this way can remed the identity crisis caused by the covid19 health crisis.
