His Excellency added: “At MBRF, we remain committed to launching innovative initiatives and projects that support and
empower youth, equipping them with the tools and skills necessary to achieve their aspirations and adapt to the rapid
advancements in knowledge and innovation. Investing in young minds is the cornerstone of sustainable development
and the foundation for building societies driven by knowledge and innovation.”

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.
