Dubai expands support for aspiring Arab podcasters

The Dubai Press Club has launched the third edition of its Arab Podcast Program to help develop the next generation of Arabic podcast creators.

The three-week programme begins on July 13 at the Dubai Press Club headquarters, offering hands-on training in podcast planning, production, publishing and marketing, led by experts from across the Arab world.

The initiative aims to equip aspiring podcasters with the creative, technical and professional skills needed to produce high-quality audio and video content.

Applicants must be between 18 and 35 years old, live in the UAE and have strong Arabic communication skills.

Participants' final projects will be judged in August, with three winners to be announced during Dubai PodFest 2026 as part of the Arab Media Summit in September.

The deadline to apply is July 12.
