  • For Festivals/Events/Organizations Who Generated Publicity Through a Media Stunt to Promote Their Event/Cause Etc.)
    Most Creative / Effective News Stunt (For Festivals/Events/Organizations who generated publicity through a media stunt to promote their event/cause etc.) 1. Overview Information: Please provide a detailed overview explaining the following, using no more than one (1) page to explain each section: a. Introduction & background of campaign / event “Eid in Dubai” was launched in 2008 by the Dubai Festivals and Retail Establishment (DFRE), an agency of the Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing in Dubai (DTCM). It came third in line in the portfolio of mega-events organized by DFRE, after the world renowned Dubai Shopping Festival (DSF) in 1996, and Dubai Summer Surprises (DSS) in 1998. While DSF aims at promoting Dubai as a shopping destination, and DSS promotes the emirate as a summer holiday destination, ‘Eid in Dubai’ was launched as a social/cultural celebration inspired by the values of the Islamic “Eid” which is celebrated by millions of Muslims around the world twice a year during Eid Al Fitr following Ramadan, the month of fasting, and Eid Al Adha, following the annual Hajj, or Pilgrimage. The “Eid in Dubai” campaign supported the concept of Dubai as a year-round destination by promoting Dubai as a destination of choice for tourists during the Eid holidays. The festival was built around the values traditionally associated with Eid, which is all about giving, sharing and togetherness along with the region’s deep-rooted hospitality and cultural traditions, including gift-giving among family and friends. DFRE embraces these values in all the events and festivities that are included in its “Eid in Dubai” activities.

  • Fear and Money in Dubai
    metropolitan disorders The hectic pace of capitalist development over the past decades has taken tangible form in the transformation of the world’s cities: the epic expansion of coastal China, deindustrialization and suburbanization of the imperial heartlands, massive growth of slums. From Shanghai to São Paolo, Jerusalem to Kinshasa, cityscapes have been destroyed and remade—vertically: the soar- ing towers of finance capital’s dominance—and horizontally: the sprawling shanty-towns that shelter a vast new informal proletariat, and McMansions of a sunbelt middle class. The run-down public housing and infrastuctural projects of state-developmentalism stand as relics from another age. Against this backdrop, the field of urban studies has become one of the most dynamic areas of the social sciences, inspiring innovative contributions from the surrounding disciplines of architecture, anthropology, economics. Yet in comparison to the classic accounts of manufacturing Manchester, Second Empire Paris or Reaganite Los Angeles, much of this work is strikingly depoliticized. Characteristically, city spaces are studied in abstraction from their national contexts. The wielders of economic power and social coercion remain anonymous. The broader political narrative of a city’s metamorphosis goes untold. There are, of course, notable counter-examples. With this issue, NLR begins a series of city case studies, focusing on particular outcomes of capitalist globalization through the lens of urban change. We begin with Mike Davis’s portrait of Dubai—an extreme concentration of petrodollar wealth and Arab- world contradiction. Future issues will carry reports from Brazil, South Africa, India, gang-torn Central America, old and new Europe, Bush-era America and the vertiginous Far East.

  • Arabian Horses Find In
    INTERNATIONAL FOCUS | Dubai Arabian Horses Find In STORY & PHOTOGRAPHY BY PAMELA BURTON ow in its fifth year, the Dubai International Arabian Horse Championship (DIAHC), held March 20-23, brought Dubai together an estimated 300 of the top competitors from 12 different countries. The championship event was held at the NDubai International Convention and Exhibition Center and featured horses from some of the best of Arabian bloodlines. The three-day show, highlighted by the patronage of the Deputy Ruler of Dubai and United Arab Emirate (UAE) Minister of Finance, HH Sheikh Hamdan bin Rashid Al Maktoum, was joined by the Dubai International Horse Fair, the largest equestrian exhibition in the region. Adding to the competitive spirit, the Dubai venue was the last stop on the six-show menu for the highly anticipated International Dubai Gold Cup Series, which awarded $400,000 in prize money (or $100,000 for each class). All four classes in the series were swept by horses owned by one man—HRH Prince Khaled bin Sultan bin Abdul Aziz Al Saud from Saudi Arabia. The Dubai Gold Cup Junior Female winner was 2-year-old Layan Al Khalediah (Dakharo x Padrons Amour), the Dubai Gold Cup Senior Female winner was Magora (Gazal Al Shaqab x Margotka), the Dubai Gold Cup Junior Male prize was taken by Marquis Cahr (Marwan Al Shaqab x Rohara Magnifica), and the Dubai Gold Cup Senior Male award went to Dakharo (Dakar El Jamaal x Fof Kharolina). In its second year, the Cup was awarded for points accumulated at designated International “A” class European Conference of Arab Horse Organizations (ECAHO) shows.

  • The Elusive Dubai Lessons in Planned Development for Fast Growing Cities
    The Elusive Dubai Lessons in planned development for fast growing cities A thesis submitted to the Graduate School of The University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Community Planning in the School of Planning of the College of Design, Art, Architecture and Planning by Venkata Krishna Kumar Matturi B.Arch. Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur June 2012 Committee Chair: Mahyar Arefi, Ph.D Committee Member: Udo Greinacher, M.Arch Abstract Increase in urbanization through globalization and population explosion has resulted in rapidly growing cities in the past few decades. Driven by market forces and moneyed interests, cities are placing larger emphasis on economic development. This increasing trend had resulted in a dramatic change in urban morphology and vernacular urban fabric is being replaced by a ‘global urban form’ that has become a commonplace around the world. Dubai, a regional financial hub and a global city, rose to prominence in a matter of few decades. Started as a mere fishing village, it has managed to modernize and build itself to global prominence. Its meteoric rise has resulted in a dramatic transformation in its physical form through single minded determination and careful planning. This research explores the impact of rapid growth on Dubai's urban form and its implications on creating an ‘Elusive Dubai’. This research also investigates the phenomenon of elusiveness in major land uses of Dubai through the analysis of surveyed data collected prior to this research. Furthermore, it attempts to draw lessons for planned rapid urban growth in cities through Dubai’s model of urbanization.
