 * The initiative is part of the Dubai International Programme for Writing.

The Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Knowledge Foundation (MBRF) has announced
that all workshops under the Dubai International Programme for Writing will be
held remotely.

The initiative is part of the #InvestInKnowledge campaign, which seeks to
promote the production and dissemination of knowledge remotely, encouraging the
public to invest some of their time at home in acquiring knowledge through the
Foundation’s digital channels.

Organising the workshops remotely also serves to ensure participants’ safety
while receiving the same level of training in literature and writing. The
objective is to train generations of talented and creative Arab writers
everywhere.The first remote training workshop launched in Dubai, focusing on
short stories and presented by Eslam Abo Shkir.

MBRF’s CEO His Excellency Jamal bin Huwaireb reiterated the Foundation’s
commitment to carrying on with the workshops of the Dubai International
Programme for Writing with the same efficiency during this difficult situation,
which requires us all to practice social distancing to ensure the health and
safety of all members of the community.

 “The UAE’s digital infrastructure has allowed all entities and corporations to
maintain their operations with the highest efficiency and continue to provide
seamless and outstanding services,” H.E. added. “Today, we are reaping the
benefits of these advanced technological solutions to sustain our projects and
initiatives that aim to produce and disseminate knowledge, as well as to train
talented Arab innovators across various sectors. All of these combined make up
MBRF’s strategic objectives.”

The remote workshops will include a four-month seminar on children’s literature
beginning on May 3, 2020, in Kuwait; it features Professor Hooda Al Shawa and
brings together 10 participants. The workshop seeks to promote creative writing
among participants to produce works for children and young adults, the best of
which MBRF would later publish in collaboration with renowned publishing houses.

Furthermore, the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Knowledge Foundation is set to
introduce a young adult literature workshop in the UAE, led by author Wafa Al
Mezghani on May 10, 2020, for a duration of five months.

The Dubai International Programme for Writing seeks to support and empower young
talented writers around the world and across various disciplines of knowledge,
science, research, literature, novel writing, and poetry. The Programme seeks to
support talented authors, promote Arabic writing, and enhance its standing
around the world.
