During the opening of the 18th AWMC
conference, held at the Madaba Institute for Mosaic Art and Restoration in
partnership with the Talal Abu-Ghazaleh Knowledge Forum, Princess Basma spoke
at the opening ceremony to attendees on the role of digital media in enhancing
change.
Arab women have made a remarkable
and prominent presence in the media field in all its forms, including news
production and program content, said Princess Basma.
An Arab media woman, said Princess
Basma, plays a role no less important and dangerous than her male counterpart
when delivering a story, especially in war zones and hotspots, noting the many
female journalists killed in the line of duty.
HRH also praised the AWMC’s choice
to host the conference in Madaba, as it was chosen as the 2022 capital of Arab
tourism.
At the conference, Minister of
Tourism and Antiquities
Nayef Al-Fayez pointed to the positive impact of the
partnership between the media and national institutions working on promoting
tourism and Arab countries' cultures, attracting more tourists, and direct and
indirect investment.
Minister of Culture Haifa Al-Najjar,
Governor of Madaba Nayef Al-Hidayat, and head of office and UNESCO Representative
to Jordan Min Jeong Kim attended the conference.
