Reflecting on the signing of the memorandum, Dr. Mohammed Ibrahim Al Dhaheri said: “At the Academy, we believe that investing in national competencies and enhancing the skill and knowledge of our local talents  are critical for the success of diplomatic work, as well as achieving the UAE’s vision of building strong and sustainable international relations.”

He stated: “Digital media is becoming increasingly influential on the global scene. Through this collaboration with the New Media Academy, we seek to create an innovative educational environment that combines diplomatic skills and media capabilities. The aim, ultimately, is to develop future leaders in the field of diplomacy and international relations. We look forward to working closely with the New Media Academy to achieve the goals of this agreement, and to mutually benefit from the potential of digital media as a strategic tool to support diplomatic efforts and enhance the positive presence of the UAE on the global stage.”

Innovative solutions

Alia AlHammadi emphasised the Academy’s keenness to keep pace with global developments in digital media. She stated: “We are committed to offering innovative solutions that work towards developing qualified cadres in both knowledge and practice through our advanced training programs, and providing the means necessary to prepare creative media talents and content creators in order to convey the UAE’s vision and message to the entire world.”

She added: “The signing of this MoU with Anwar Gargash Diplomatic Academy reflects our commitment to establishing strategic partnerships with leading academic institutions. We are dedicated to supporting national efforts aiming to foster local talents in digital media, hone the skills of current and future diplomats, and equip them with the tools aligned with the requirements of an accelerating digital age.”
