prominent knowledge event is to provide young Kuwaiti talents with innovative

perspectives and experiences that will actively contribute to society’s progress
and address its challenges.”

Ms. Eman Al-Sharrah, from the National Knowledge Economy Center of the

GSSCPD, said: “We welcome the Knowledge Week in Kuwait and encourage the

youth to apply to participate in it as we envision the event as a transitional

point towards Kuwait’s third National Development Plan and Vision 2035. By

nurturing Kuwaiti youth’s talents and ideas, we aim to shape a future where
knowledge drives prosperity for the State of Kuwait.”

Emma Morley, UNDP Resident Representative in Kuwait, stated: “The UNDP is

committed to empowering the youth of Kuwait by equipping them with the

skills and knowledge needed to lead their societies. The Knowledge Week is a

crucial step in this process, as it provides a platform for collaboration, learning,

and leadership in sustainable development.”

In October 2024, the UNDP will host Knowledge Week in collaboration with the

MBRF and the GSSCPD. Through the event, it aims to leverage insights from the
Global Knowledge Index to address developmental challenges and support

Kuwait’s transition towards a knowledge-based economy, aligning with Kuwait

Vision 2035. Moreover, it aims to enhance the future skills of Kuwaiti youth.

Previously held in Egypt and Jordan, the Knowledge Week plays a pivotal role in

encouraging development contributions from youth in both countries while also
establishing a vast network of leaders and changemakers.
