She said that “this step reflects the foundation’s commitment to expand its impact and reinforce the role of youth as drivers of positive change in societies”.

Mufleh affirmed that the memorandum aims to strengthen relations and communication between the El Hassan Youth Award and the foundation in line with its objectives seeking to promote the initiative spirit, offer purposeful training programmes for skill development, stimulate creative ideas, guide towards entrepreneurship and innovation, empower youth to envision the future and adapt global changes, enhance competitiveness and make decisions based on societal values and self-reliance.
