1/14/25, 9:28 AM MBRF concludes exceptional year of achievements in knowledge dissemination and innovation
Under the Dubai International Program for Writing (DIPW), MBRF conducted several
intellectual workshops and events. This includes the ‘Writing Children’s Stories Workshop,’
‘Book Criticism Workshop,’ ‘Scientific Translation Workshop,’ ‘Workshop on Creating
Illustrations for Children’s Stories,’ and ‘Novel Writing Workshop in Jordan’.
DIPW organized a number of events as part of MBRF’s participation in both local and
international book fairs, including the Sharjah International Book Fair, Abu Dhabi International
Book Fair, Cairo International Book Fair, London Book Fair, Frankfurt Book Fair, and various
other events where DIPW members actively participated. One of the DIPW’s primary
outcomes is the production of a series of valuable children’s and scientific books, totaling
more than 15 publications. Through the MBRF platform, these novels have been extensively
reviewed and discussed both virtually and in-person. Furthermore, the MBRF participated in
‘GITEX Global 2024,’ the Kuwait Fair, and the ‘Riyadh International Book Fair’.
MBRF additionally arranged over 40 knowledge events and panel sessions as part of the
‘Knowledge Lounge’ initiative. These sessions witnessed the participation of renowned figures
in the knowledge and publishing fields, discussing a wide range of topics and highlighting the
numerous prominent books that have garnered widespread readership.
The 12th edition of the ‘Bil Arabi’ initiative marked the conclusion of MBRF’s initiatives in
2024. The objective of this initiative is to foster the use of the Arabic language in day-to-day
interactions. Most recently, the initiative received the ‘King Salman Global Academy Award for
Arabic Language’ in its third edition, recognizing its remarkable achievements in supporting
and enriching the Arabic language. The campaign garnered widespread engagement from the
public, featuring a variety of events and activities celebrating the Arabic language across
major shopping centers in the UAE. Additionally, the hashtag #bilarabi saw significant traction
on social media. The campaign also extended its reach internationally, with events organized
in Bahrain, Egypt, the UK, Kazakhstan, and Pakistan.
