The initiative will adopt an unconventional creative approach, including organizing competitions and research assignments for media students in Arab universities, focusing on topics related to the media, entertainment, and digital innovation sectors. An advisory committee and a board of trustees will oversee the implementation of the initiative, ensuring continuous evaluation and development.

Additionally, the initiative's events will be organized annually, moving between Arab capitals in the Middle East and North Africa, while taking into account the specificities of local communities, with the aim of enhancing interaction and effective participation.
