With less than two months to go until the 14th Dubai International Film Festival (DIFF), the annual gala is inviting volunteers to join the team. Registration is now open for DIFFs volunteer programme open to all UAE Nationals and residents over the age of 18.
Running across eight days, DIFFs volunteer programme offers an opportunity to support a variety of festival operations including marketing, media, administration, box office, red carpet ushers and event management.
Commenting on the volunteer programme, Mohammed Alhousani, DIFFs Director of Human Resources and Administration, said: Last year we had 600 amazing volunteers who dedicated more than 5000 hours of their time to make the festival happen. The fact that many of our volunteers return year on year speaks not only of their dedication and passion for films, but also of the quality of the volunteer programme.
Samina Yusuf, HR & Volunteer Manager of DIFF said: Coming together to create the festival is a team effort and we couldnt do it without our incredible volunteers! They really are a treasured resource.
Alongside building skills, volunteers can also enjoy film premieres during the festival, networking opportunities and a Letter of Recommendation and a Certificate of Appreciation from DIFF.
