The Dubai Content Creators Program provides training in storytelling, audience engagement, and multimedia production, preparing participants to create content that reaches audiences across digital platforms. Areas of focus include developing narratives, designing content for digital engagement, and integrating multimedia elements like video and infographics to enhance message delivery.
The program will include training in research and analysis methods, helping participants develop skills in various research approaches and use a range of sources to gather information, thereby improving the credibility of their content.
Maryam Al Mulla, acting director of Dubai Press Club, shared that the program’s initial phase will see the Economic Content Creators Program launch in December, which is being run in collaboration with the UAE Ministry of Economy and financial media organizations. This phase aims to enhance economic literacy in digital media by providing training in economic reporting and industry trends.

They are our partners in effectively highlighting the UAE’s business environment and investment opportunities, as well as bringing the world’s attention to the economic transformation and developments taking place in the country.”
