Jamal bin Huwaireb, CEO of MBRF, emphasised that YKF's fourth edition aligns with MBRF’s mission to position youth as

key contributors to a sustainable future. "Through this forum, we aim to foster a proactive culture aimed at enhancing the
youths’ ability to address future challenges," he said. The collaboration with MOYS highlights their shared commitment to

an inclusive knowledge economy.

The forum will feature discussions on public policies in the knowledge economy era. It will explore strategic cooperation
between governments and international bodies while tackling misinformation challenges in the digital age. The role of

digital media in raising awareness among Generation Alpha will also be addressed.

YKF will delve into entrepreneurship challenges faced by startups, showcasing success stories from young entrepreneurs

across Egypt and the Arab world. Human capital development amid digital transformation will be another focus area,
discussing educational reforms, skill enhancement, and lifelong learning.

Ghimar Deeb, Acting Resident Representative of UNDP in Egypt, stated: "As the world rapidly transitions towards a
knowledge-based economy, empowering youth and enhancing their knowledge and skills has become an essential

priority." UNDP Egypt supports initiatives that equip young people with skills in digital transformation, entrepreneurship, and

the green economy.
