8/15/25, 9:12 AM Dubai Youth councils team up to host Youth lab - UAE - Emirates24|7
youth energy meets Dubai’s strategic vision, producing actionable concepts that can enhance quality

of life, develop education, and advance sustainability and digital transformation. The ideas presented
today were practical, well thought out, and reflect a deep understanding of upcoming priorities. We

must continue to nurture these talents and provide the enabling environment for them to succeed.”

Decision-makers in the making

Reem Al Falasi, President of the Dubai Youth Council, said: “Dubai Youth Lab reflects the emirate’s

vision of empowering young minds to shape their own future – not just as beneficiaries, but as

decision-makers and true changemakers. The event enhances understanding of Dubai’s decision-
making processes, builds youth policy analysis skills, and fosters direct communication between youth

and leadership. It also generates innovative ideas that can contribute to government development.”

The six participating groups tackled priority community issues such as the future of education, mental

health, employment, aligning education with labour market needs, training culture, and empowering
non-university graduates. The Lab’s outputs will be documented, analysed, and submitted to relevant

authorities to inform future programmes and policies.
