GCCJPPI Director General visits Kuwait Times and Kuwait News; explores opportunities

KUWAIT: The Director General of the GCC Joint Program Production Institution (GCCJPPI), Sheikh Mubarak Fahad Jaber Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah, visited the Kuwait Times and Kuwait News offices on Sunday to explore the latest developments in the media industry and understand the institution’s workflow. The visit aimed to see the evolving role of digital transformation in modern journalism and discuss future opportunities for joint initiatives.

During his visit, Abdullah Boftain, Deputy Editor-in-chief of Kuwait Times, guided Sheikh Mubarak on a tour of the newspaper’s facilities, providing insights into its editorial department. Sheikh Mubarak was briefed on the editorial workflow, content production mechanisms, and how technology is integrated to enhance news coverage and media operations.

The visit also included an in-depth discussion on Kuwait Times’ long-term vision, its commitment to journalistic excellence and its strategic approach to adapting to digitalize while maintaining high-quality content. Joint Program Production Institution was founded by the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) as a pioneering initiative to enhance media and cultural collaboration across member states. The institution has played a key role in producing meaningful content that reflects the region’s values and promotes awareness, education and social dialogue.

JPP’s objectives were to revive the cultural heritage in the Gulf area and raise the level of artistic production of radio and television programs in those countries, in order to embody the common and proper spirit of the Gulf countries. Since 1977, the institution has been keen on producing many educational, cultural, and environmental, and health programs as well as serials that focused on significant aspects in the march of the societal development of the GCC peoples.
