(MENAFN- Dubai PR Network) 23 October 2024 - The Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum
Knowledge Foundation (MBRF) and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), in
partnership with the Kuwaiti General Secretariat of the Supreme Council for Planning and

Development (GSSCPD), have launched the first workshop in the 'Knowledge Journey in
Kuwait.' This transformative initiative is designed to empower Kuwaiti youth with skills

essential for building a knowledge-based Economy and contributing to Kuwait's national
development. The workshop marks the beginning of a series of events leading up to the

Knowledge Week, scheduled for next year.

As nations shift towards knowledge-driven societies, Kuwait's Third National Development
Plan and Kuwait Vision 2035, align with this global trend by focusing on innovation, youth

empowerment, and fostering a dynamic private sector. The Knowledge Journey has emerged
as a transformative initiative, designed to create meaningful conversations between youth and

policymakers, building on insights from the Global Knowledge Index (GKI), a flagship initiative
of UNDP's Knowledge Project.

His Excellency Jamal bin Huwaireb, CEO of MBRF , said, 'Today marks a critical milestone

in Kuwait's efforts to empower its youth and develop a knowledge-based economy. We are
proud to have been part of the workshop's launch through our partnership with the UNDP and

GSSCPD, a step towards supporting youth with the tools necessary to drive innovation and
national development. Together, we hope to develop policies and programs that will shape a

better future for coming generations.'
