His Excellency Jamal bin Huwaireb, CEO of the MBRF, emphasized the importance of this initiative,
stating, "We are delighted to strengthen the MBRF’s vital contributions to reinforcing the literary and
knowledge landscape in Jordan through our Novel Writing Workshop, especially to support young
people. 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.
Over the past decade, DIPW has trained over 400 young writers and published approximately 200
books in various literary genres. Some of these publications have earned prestigious accolades,
contributing significantly to the literary landscape of the Arab world.
