The Quarter Century Foundation for Leadership and Innovation has announced the launch of “Majawara – the Quarter Century Creative Writing Program.” This initiative aims to enhance the literary creativity of future generations and will take place from April 7 to April 10. The program offers participants a unique learning experience that combines interaction, inspiration, and hands-on experiences to enrich their knowledge and expand their creative horizons.

The program targets young writers from the Sharjah Youth and the Sharjah Girls’ Clubs, specifically those aged between 13 and 18. Its primary goals include training participants on the fundamentals of storytelling and enhancing their skills in critical thinking, analysis, and description. Participants will also gain the necessary tools and techniques to tackle the challenge of writing a complete story.

Additionally, the program creates a vibrant space for meaningful discussions and creative exchanges. It features an intensive journey of writing and exploration that blends theoretical training with practical application, empowering participants to delve into the depths of creative writing. They will learn to master narrative writing skills, character development, plot construction, and various narrative styles.

The program also includes visits to significant cultural and tourist landmarks in Sharjah, where participants can find new sources of inspiration that will enrich their written texts with realistic styles. These visits align with creative writing techniques and standards of literary content innovation, allowing participants to experience places of cultural and historical significance.

Majawara is not merely a program of interactive workshops for learning writing; it represents a blend of training, dialogue, and exploration. It serves as a bridge connecting words to imagination, weaving together experiences that are lived, stories that are told, and creativity that is shared.
