His Highness Shaikh Nasser bin Hamad Al Khalifa, HM the King’s Representative for Humanitarian Work and Youth Affairs, has highlighted the critical need to invest in Arab youth, asserting their role as an essential component of the region’s legacy and civilisation.

At the “Arab Youth Media Forum” in Dubai, HH Shaikh Nasser pointed out the importance of aiding young individuals in two principal areas: Skill and Ability Enhancement: Empowering them to be the vanguards of progress and the designers of tomorrow.

Guidance and Support: Aiding them to rise above tribulations and keep pace with the swiftly shifting global landscape.

HH Shaikh Nasser emphasised the importance of inculcating a spirit of resilience, collective endeavour, and persistence among the youth, identifying these attributes as the bedrock of achievement and skill refinement.

Entirety

He remarked, “The youth are not merely a substantial segment of our current era but also the entirety of what lies ahead.” In reverence to the importance of national ethos, HH Shaikh Nasser invoked the wisdom of the late Shaikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, who opined, “One devoid of history possesses neither a present nor a destiny.”

He posited that a firm national ethos is the lodestar for Arab nations in their quest for advancement and success.

In his speech, HH Shaikh Nasser praised Bahrain’s strides in enabling its youth to significantly contribute to the country’s growth and modernisation.

Belief

He expressed firm belief in the potential of Bahraini youth, urging them to actively engage with their ideas and initiatives, reminding them of their role as stewards of both the present and the future, tasked with propelling sustainable progress.

HH Shaikh Nasser wrapped up by stressing the importance of drawing wisdom from the experiences of past generations.

He recognised the profound reverence Arab youth have for their ancestors’ legacy and their eagerness to enhance it with a modern touch that harmonises tradition with technological progress.
