delivering over 114,000 hours of learning. A further 13,000 learners across the region are
currently participating in initiatives to build future-ready skills, preparing them for an
evolving labour market increasingly driven by competitive skills rather than traditional
academic credentials.

The event concluded by stressing the importance of regional ownership and the alignment
of knowledge tools and capacity-building strategies with local priorities. It further
highlighted the need for cross-sectoral integration to advance a sustainable and inclusive
future for the Arab world and beyond. As part of this effort, it was announced that the 10th
edition of the ‘Knowledge Summit’ will be held in Dubai on 19–20 November 2025 under the

theme ‘Knowledge Markets: Developing Sustainable Communities’. Celebrating a decade
since its launch, the Summit reaffirms its role as a global forum for dialogue and knowledge
exchange, exploring the role of knowledge in shaping policy, driving sustainable
development, and empowering individuals and communities.
