(MENAFN- Kuwait News Agency (KUNA)) KUWAIT, July 20 (KUNA) -- Ministry of Information, the Public Authority for Applied Education and Training (PAAET), and the Kuwait Journalists Association (KJA) have agreed to introduce a Digital Media diploma at PAAET.
Minister of Information and Culture and Minister of State for Youth Affairs Abdulrahman Al-Mutairi met with PAAET Director General Dr. Hassan Al-Fajjam and KJA Chairman Adnan Al-Rashed to advance the plan, the Information Ministry said in a press statement on Sunday.
The diploma will build media literacy among Kuwaiti youth and train them in fast evolving digital fields--visual and interactive content, modern social platforms, and tourism media--to support Kuwait's push to grow its tourism sector and establish itself as a cultural and media hub, it explained.
The program will produce graduates who can create high quality, nationally reflective content, boost the local media scene, and spur youth entrepreneurship, it said.
The initiative fits the ministry's strategy of strengthening government civil society partnerships toward a creative, knowledge driven "New Kuwait," it pointed out.
Also attending were KJA Treasurer Dhahiran Aba Al-Khail and PAAET Deputy Director General for Applied Education and Research Dr. Mohammad Al-Hayyan. (end) mdm
