Who we are

Shaima Nabeel AlMulla Research and Studies Center was established by the Kuwaiti writer and researcher Shaima Nabeel AlMulla in December 2023. It was founded after the transformation of the Shaima Nabeel AlMulla Publishing and Distribution House into a center bearing the same name for research and studies. This center focuses on providing documentary works about prominent fields and figures in the history of Kuwait and the Arab region. It also engages in analyzing and studying the present status in social, educational, media, artistic, and other fields, foresighting the future based on a deep comprehension of the past and present.

The center initially was "Shaimaa Nabeel AlMulla Publishing and Distribution House" in 2015, named after her, evolved into a research and studies center in December 2023 after publishing numerous notable publications in diverse fields related to Kuwait's history, education, intelligence, future foresight, and many other fields. Some of these publications include "The Pioneers," "Councils of Kuwaiti Rulers through the Eyes of Western Travelers," "The Life of King Abdulaziz in Kuwait," "AlMulla in the Realm of History and Politics," "Safat Square." And many more.

In terms of anticipating the future, the center has published numerous books aiming to predict the trajectory of education and media amidst the swift developments and transformations driven by digitalization and artificial intelligence. Transforming the publishing and distribution house into a center for research and studies is an ambitious goal aimed at achieving local societal development and contributing to documenting the past, understanding the present, and foresighting the future for appropriate planning.
