Dubai Culture and Arts Authority (Dubai Culture) has announced the ‘Certified Cultural Guide Programme’ at Etihad Museum for school students aged 10-18.
The Authority promises a summer full of interesting and innovative activities taking place from July 18 to July 29.
Over the course of two weeks, Dubai Culture has prepared a unique programme in Arabic and English, including physical and virtual tours of Etihad Museum offering the opportunity to learn what it takes to become a certified cultural guide and about the various sections of the museum, developing their knowledge about the history of the UAE and the holdings of its founding fathers.
The virtual part of the programme will be held on Microsoft Teams in cooperation with Dubai 360.
The programme also includes theoretical exercises and practical tours of Etihad Museum, spanning five days under the supervision of certified cultural guides. Participants will also acquire the needed skills to organise cultural tours and provide interesting experiences for guests.
Hanan Al Harmoodi, Project Manager of the programme, said "we also seek to strengthen the relationship of the youth with the history of the UAE and its heritage. Emirati culture is present in the minds and hearts of the younger generations and motivates them to draw inspiration from the story of the Founding Fathers to continue the emirate’s development and prosperity over the next 50 years."
