The 14th edition of the event is being organised by Dubai’s Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing (DTCM) under the patronage of Shaikh Ahmed bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Chairman of the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Foundation.
“The Dubai Ramadan Forum aims to spread the enriching values of the Islamic faith and its tolerant teachings aimed at establishing peace and harmony among people of diverse nationalities. Dubai serves as an excellent model of this wonderful coexistence, as ... the city is home to more than 200 nationalities from around the world living together as one big multicultural family,” said Hamad Mohammed bin Mejren, Senior Vice-President, Dubai Events and Convention Bureau at the DTCM.
Entrance to the forum will be free for the public.

Preacher of the Nation — a competition aimed at honing the skills of students in public speaking, poetry recitation and preaching — will be hosted as part of the forum.
