Khalifa will be an artist-in residence at the Slimane Sactuary, Marrakech together with pianist Marcus Baban from March 20th to April 6th 2026. The focus of the residency will be the premiere and launch of a project centered around permaculture and art as means to forward awareness around climate change.

A new movie on Claudio Arrau, by Chillean filmmaker Cristian Vega. The film is an official project of the Consejo Nacional de Television de Chile and will be premiered in Chile in November 2025.

Khalifa's research on the teaching legacy of Chilean pianist Claudio Arrau is now becoming a book project, which includes interviews to internationally renown artists like Garrick Ohlsson, Erika Nickrenz, Robert Lopez and Ruth Nye.

The book is expected to be published at the end of the summer of 2025 with the support of the American Liszt Society.

Khalifa will launch the work of Innertone Music Foundation by hosting Colombian-American pianist and technician Pilar Leyva for a lecture about the re-engineering of the hands for the prevention of piano-related injuries.
