About the Forum
The Arab Forum of Science Media and Communication is the first event of its kind to be held in the Arab region gathering those who are interested in the fields of media and scientific communication in the Arab region.
The annual Forum aims to bring together science journalists, science communicators, researchers and scientists to exchange ideas and thoughts and empower the science communication industry in MENA. Also we are gathering government, private sector and non-governmental organizations dedicated to media and science communication, as well as university students studying media, journalism, and science.
The third annual Arab Forum of Science and Media Communication took place from the 29th to the 31st of May, and that year we collaborated with the University of Sharjah in the United Arab Emirates to bring our attendees an unparalleled experience. The theme for that edition was “Communicating for Sustainability”, and we had lined up an exciting array of events and activities that addressed the most pressing challenges facing science media and communication, as well as the various strategies for conveying sustainability-related concepts to diverse segments of society in the Arab world.

The scientific community stands on three pillars: science, technology, and society. Science is the foundation upon which technology is built, and it is the advancement of technology that enables the development and progress of science. Nevertheless, the triumph of this interdependent relationship relies heavily on society's comprehension and acknowledgment of science's significance.
