Board of Dubai Media Council reconstituted under new Degree
The Board of the Dubai Media Council has been reconstituted to enhance its strategic role in shaping the emirate's media landscape, with a focus on agility, efficiency, and global competitiveness. His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President, Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai, issued Decree No. (24) of 2025, reconstituting the Council and appointing Mona Ghanem Al Marri as Vice Chairperson and Managing Director, and Nehal Badri as Secretary-General. The restructured board includes prominent industry figures and leaders: Hala Badri, Malek Sultan Al Malek, Aisha Abdulla Miran, Abdullah Humaid Belhoul, Mohammed Ali Lootah, Younes Abdulaziz Al Nasser, Khalfan Juma Belhoul, Issam Abdulrahim Kazim, Mohammed Sulaiman Al Mulla, and Aref Mohammed Amiri. The Council will continue to be chaired by His Highness Sheikh Ahmed bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Second Deputy Ruler of Dubai. This strategic move aligns with Law No. (29) of 2024, which expands the Council's mandate and grants it broader powers to oversee and implement development plans for Dubai's media sector. The Decree also aligns with Decree No. (67) of 2024, transferring the Dubai Film and TV Commission from the Dubai Development Authority to the Dubai Media Council. In a key development, Sheikh Ahmed has approved the establishment of the Dubai Films and Games Commission, which assumes the responsibilities of the former Film and TV Commission. The new Commission is tasked with advancing Dubai's film and video game industries — key pillars in the evolving media ecosystem and the emirate's broader knowledge-based economy.
