human resources planning across different sectors. By leveraging the innovative visions and creative ideas of
the youth, it aims to strengthen the human capital framework within the public sector.

The new council operates through four core paths: Partnerships Pathway, Capacity Development Pathway,
Artificial Intelligence Pathway and Quality of Life Pathway. These pathways seek to strengthen the
department’s efforts by enhancing effective communication channels among different youth councils, further

empowering the youth to cultivate their skills and pursue their ambitions. This can be achieved by leveraging
latest technological innovations and advancements in AI to bolster and execute innovative ideas, with a

specific emphasis on programs and initiatives that promote mental and physical wellness, as well as financial
literacy.

Under the guidance of the Director General of the Department and Chairman of the Youth Council, the
administrative team will oversee the innovation and implementation of the new system. Their key objective is
to support and steer all pathways toward reaching the desired goals, in accordance with the DGHR’s strategy

of enhancing human capital, particularly focusing on the younger generation. This can be achieved by
harnessing methods of empowerment, including the execution of projects and programs aimed at fostering
their technical and leadership skills, while also fulfilling the objectives of the UAE Centenary Plan 2071, which

aims to empower the Emirati youth.
