Our major focus is to support young literary talents by refining their writing skills. This workshop, which comes as part of the initiatives organized by DIPW across numerous Arab cities, reflects the commitment of the MBRF to expand its support and empowerment channels for youth across the Arab region.”
The workshop aligns with DIPW's vision to bolster the literary and knowledge movement within Arab communities while supporting young talents in novel writing. Under Dr. Shahla Ujayli's guidance, participants will benefit from top-tier education and practical sessions, essential for budding writers to thrive in the regional and global literary landscape.
In addition to novel writing, DIPW organizes workshops on various literary topics, including translation, children’s literature, and literary criticism. These initiatives aim to support writers across the Arab world, foster a passion for reading, and strengthen the role of literature in society.
