part of an integrated ecosystem that unites government entities, economic
sectors, and youth organisations to equip young people with leadership skills and
strategic opportunities to shape our shared future.”
The event began with opening remarks from leaders, followed by the division of
participants into working groups. Each received a ‘vital file’ based on a
real government challenge, analysed its root causes, and developed
comprehensive solutions. These were presented to a judging panel of experts
and decision-makers, evaluated on innovation, feasibility, and alignment with
national priorities.
Aisha Miran noted that such experiences demonstrate the maturity and readiness
of Dubai’s youth. “This is more than a platform for exchanging ideas – it is a
genuine workshop where 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.”
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.
