research

July 8, 2024 11

The Digital Knowledge Hub (DKH), the prominent Arab knowledge platform developed by the

Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Knowledge Foundation (MBRF), holds a significant position in
a world where artificial intelligence (AI) gains traction through its reliance on digital knowledge
and develops daily with the proliferation of applications and systems that provide access digital

knowledge. Furthermore, the DKH gains more prominence as an integrated digital system with
extensive Arab and global knowledge content and contributes to elevating AI’s presence in the

digital environment. It includes many cognitive digital sources segregated using sophisticated
standard methods that make the searching, browsing, and reading process seamless and flexible
anywhere and anytime.

Ambitious and pioneering cognitive mission:

The key goal of the DKH is to develop a broad digital knowledge base and ensure its accessibility
to the Arab World and beyond. It also seeks to contribute to creating a robust digital

infrastructure, which supports sharing knowledge by enriching the Arab digital library with
books, studies, and research, and offering interactive educational content that addresses the

requirements of different age groups. In addition, the hub seeks to support the dissemination of
authentic Arab content and strengthen its position in the digital world for bridging the digital
knowledge gap in the Arab World.

The DKH further seeks to offer and develop an integrated open platform that gathers all

knowledge outputs of the MBRF along with the materials of institutions of the government of
Dubai and a wide range of libraries focused on special age groups and specialized knowledge
sectors. The move comes within a comprehensive smart framework to ensure easy and fast

access to diverse knowledge sources in different scientific, literary, and research disciplines
offered by Arab and international publishing houses. Currently, the DKH has over 600,000 titles

divided into nearly 6.5 million digital materials.

Goals of DKH:
