Doha: Dreama Orphan Care Center has concluded the ‘Media Ambassadors Dreama’ program, held in partnership with Al Jazeera Media Institute. This initiative aimed to empower participating youth by strengthening their media skills, self-expression, communication, and content creation capabilities.
According to Qatar News Agency, the collaboration reflects both institutions’ shared commitment to preparing a confident generation capable of creating positive change in society. Over the course of several months, participants took part in a series of specialized training workshops covering a wide range of topics, including Arabic language, self-confidence, youth broadcasting, artificial intelligence, voice and presentation techniques, and the fundamentals of media production.
A team of expert trainers from Al Jazeera Media Institute (AJMI) led the workshops, guiding the youth in developing key skills such as presenting, filming, and scriptwriting, while also introducing them to modern AI tools used in media. The program struck a balance between theory and practice, offering participants hands-on experience through the production of visual reports, recorded interviews, podcast segments, and live on-camera presentations.
This immersive approach resulted in creative media content produced entirely by the youth themselves, reflecting both their growth and the success of the partnership in achieving its educational and developmental goals. Organizers from both Dreama and AJMI emphasized that the initiative aligns with their ongoing mission to provide high-quality learning opportunities that nurture young talent and equip them with the tools to express themselves and positively contribute to their communities.
The program concluded with a recognition ceremony, where participants showcased samples of their work and received certificates in a celebratory atmosphere that highlighted the pride both institutions take in the youth’s efforts and aspirations. Executive Director of Dreama Orphan Care Center, Sheikha Najla bint Ahmed Al-Thani, expressed joy at the achievement, emphasizing that the program offered children a space to grow, express themselves, and discover their potential in media and communication.
For his part, manager of Planning and Projects at AJMI Hamad Al Hawal noted that the program reflects Al Jazeera Media Institute’s mission to empower individuals and disseminate media knowledge with professionalism. He highlighted the importance of such initiatives in discovering potential and encouraging critical thinking and responsible expression among participants. Al Hawal also reaffirmed AJMI’s commitment to developing high-quality programs that enhance competence and open new horizons for those who see media as a tool for societal advancement.
