The Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Knowledge Foundation MBRF and the United Nations
Development Programme UNDP, in collaboration with Kuwait’s General Secretariat of the
Supreme Council for Planning and Development SCPD, launched the third and final phase of
the ‘Knowledge Journey in Kuwait’ initiative. In line with its goal to empower Kuwaiti women
and youth, the initiative aims to nurture key leadership skills to address future challenges
and drive sustainable development across the public and private sectors. The concluding
phase included virtual sessions on June 23 and 25, 2025, followed by in-person workshops
scheduled from June 29 to July 1, 2025, in Kuwait.

In the final phase, nearly 60 participants benefitted from a dynamic and engaging learning
environment featuring interactive workshops, expert-led analytical sessions, and thought-
provoking discussions. Distinguished keynote speakers shared insights, while collaborative
working groups co-developed practical, forward-looking strategies for knowledge
sustainability. The results of the initiative, including policy recommendations for decision-
makers, will act as a strategic roadmap for shaping Kuwait’s knowledge-driven future.

His Excellency Jamal bin Huwaireb, CEO of MBRF, said, “Driven by our strong belief in
human capital investment, we strive to empower the youth by equipping them with future-
ready skills to meet the needs of a rapidly evolving world. At MBRF, we prioritize designing
innovative programs and knowledge initiatives that contribute to boosting youth
competencies across the globe. Amid this, the Knowledge Journey stands as a testament to
our mission to increase opportunities for new demographics despite any regional
boundaries, attaining our vision of a sustainable knowledge economy based on innovation
and creative thinking.”
