6/21/24, 1:50 PM DIPW concludes 1st phase of ‘Illustrations for Children’s Stories’ workshop
During this phase, participants gained knowledge regarding the fundamental elements
and aesthetic aspects of children’s stories, including understanding the selection of

suitable colors, arranging elements on the page, and effectively utilizing blank spaces.

Furthermore, they were also introduced to a diverse collection of Arabic and non-Arabic
story models, acquiring familiarity with various global methods for designing and

producing engaging children’s stories and books.

Participants also had the unique opportunity to receive practical training sessions focused
on book cover designs. This training was targeted at educating them about the common

mistakes so they could steer clear and have a thorough understanding of the artistic
processes involved in book production. With these necessary skills and theoretical

knowledge, the participants are well-prepared to produce illustrative scenarios for stories
crafted by their fellow peers in other storytelling workshops conducted by DIPW. These

illustrations will undergo further feedback and guidance from the workshop facilitators

before being prepared for publication in the next phase.

Through its flagship innovative knowledge initiatives and projects, DIPW has secured

numerous remarkable feats across Arab countries, including Kuwait, Tunisia, Morocco,

and Egypt. Remarkably, the program has established itself as a leading intellectual
platform that plays an instrumental role in promoting a significant Arab renaissance in

children’s literature. Its main focus falls on fostering young and creative talents in

children’s writing while offering support, encouragement, and enhancement of their
abilities.
