QMC participates in session of Permanent Committee for Arab Media

Cairo witnessed the Qatar Media Corporation (QMC) joining the 105th ordinary session of the Permanent Committee for Arab Media, taking place at the League of Arab States' General Secretariat on a recent day. Representatives from various Arab countries and media organizations were present. QMC's Director of International Cooperation and Agreements Office, Abdullah Ghanem Al Mohannadi, headed the delegation.

During the meeting, QMC shared a paper on integrating artificial intelligence (AI) into Arab media and its consequences for the human workforce. This initiative aligned with the committee's broader goal of employing AI technologies in the media sector to boost performance and bolster its role in promoting Arab causes.

The session covered multiple subjects, such as promoting collective Arab media actions, developing the Arab media ecosystem, and keeping up with digital and technological advancements. Discussions also focused on strategies to combat false information and misinformation, boosting Arab media's international standing, and tackling key issues, mainly the Palestinian cause, while fostering cooperation among Arab media bodies.

The Permanent Committee for Arab Media meeting precedes the 56th session of the Council of Arab Information Ministers, also held in Cairo. This session will explore drafts of resolutions and recommendations to strengthen joint Arab media cooperation. It will also deliberate on making Doha the "Capital of Arab Media" for 2027, with the formal announcement set for the end of the month.

QMC's involvement underscores Qatar's dedication to promoting joint Arab media endeavors, encouraging cooperation and coordination among media institutions, and promoting knowledge and experience exchange in line with the media industry's rapid evolution.
