The Dubai International Program for Writing (DIPW), a leading initiative by the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum
Knowledge Foundation (MBRF), launched two groundbreaking workshops titled ‘Scientific Translation’ and ‘Scientific
Article’ during its participation in the Cairo International Book Fair, held from 23 January to 5 February 2025.
These innovative workshops aim to encourage and support exceptional young talents in enhancing their writing skills,
thereby fostering the next generation of researchers and innovators in the Arab world.
The ‘Scientific Article’ workshop is designed for those involved in journalism and media professions who specialize in
writing scientific articles. It aims to train a group of young journalists interested in environmental and scientific topics
and related subjects. The workshop further offers participants the fundamental language and research skills required to
write articles across various topics, such as technology, medical sciences, and space sciences, among others. Participants
of this workshop produce in-depth articles of at least 2,000 words, written in a clear, simple manner that is easily
comprehensible to the average reader.
This workshop serves as an introductory platform for individuals who seek to explore scientific research and similar
articles. This supports the development of human capital and aligns seamlessly with MBRF’s steadfast commitment to
enriching the Arabic library with outstanding and accomplished researchers who possess valuable skills beyond
literature. The goal is to utilize young talents’ skills and capacities to create a sustainable and innovation-driven
intellectual community in the Arab world.
The ‘Scientific Translation’ workshop represents a vital part of DIPW’s initiatives. This workshop aims to provide
training for participants in specialized scientific translation, equipping them with the necessary tools and skills to
translate books alongside experts and professional trainers from various fields. It enhances participants’ abilities and
skills, empowering them to create and share scientific content in Arabic. The primary objective is to make this content
accessible to researchers, students, enthusiasts, and research centers.
His Excellency Jamal bin Huwaireb, CEO of MBRF, emphasized that the aim of these workshops is to bridge the gap
between the academic and research needs of the workforce and the potential talents of the youth. H.E. stated: “Our
objective is to establish a comprehensive ecosystem that promotes a culture of scientific excellence and equips young
talents with the necessary resources for proficient academic writing and precise translation. This enables effective
communication between Arabic materials and the international scientific community.”
