The Ministry of Culture - in collaboration with the Emirati Talent Competitiveness Council (Nafis),
the General Women’s Union (GWU), and UAE Media Council - is set to launch ‘Path of Creativity’
programme, aimed at supporting citizens seeking employment in the cultural and creative
industries. The programme will be hosted at the Maqam Council in Al Ain City on 25 September
2025, bringing together federal and local entities as well as private sector companies.

The initiative is designed to connect Emirati creatives with job opportunities that align with their
skills and expertise, ensuring their talents are fully utilised while strengthening the contribution of
the cultural and creative industries to the nation’s economy. By establishing direct communication
channels between creatives and private sector institutions, the program seeks to streamline the
employment process and foster collaborations across various creative fields.

Additionally, the programme aims to develop the professional skills of creatives by providing
specialised training and qualification programs that help them adapt to different work
environments. The initiative also seeks to encourage creatives to participate in international
projects, exhibitions, and programs that enhance their presence on the global stage.
