Press Release
During his closing remarks, Dr. Hany Torky, Chief Technical Advisor and Project Manager of
the Knowledge Project at UNDP, stated that the trend now shifts towards launching a digital
platform where young people can submit suggestions on ways to promote knowledge. These
proposals will be reviewed and evaluated with the aim of putting them into practice.
For her part, Dr. Sally Mabrouk, Director of the Office of the ICESCO Director-General,
commended the great success of the YFK. She noted the high attendance and the significant
engagement of young people via live streaming, which reached nearly two million live views
over the two days of the event. This, she said, reflects the growing importance of such forums
in empowering youth and preparing them for the future.
The YKF hosted hundreds of young participants from across the Islamic World at the ICESCO
headquarters in Rabat, with 600 attendees on the first day and 400 on the second. In addition
to discussion sessions covering various fields of knowledge, the event featured success stories
of creative and innovative young women and men, encouraging participants to pursue their
aspirations and advance their intellectual journeys.
