Dr. Mohammad bin Abdulkarim Al-Issa, Secretary-General of the Muslim World League (MWL), emphasized that investing in youth is crucial for both the present and the future, highlighting the essential role young people play in their nations’ development.
Al-Issa pointed to statistics concerning the youth, especially in education. He noted that the situation is particularly troubling for girls, many of whom are denied schooling simply because of their gender.
As a guest of honor at the “Africa Youth Forum 2024” in Nairobi, Al-Issa discussed key issues affecting youth today and in the future, stressing the importance of their role in shaping the future of their countries and the world.
The forum brought together key leaders, influential African politicians, representatives from international organizations, youth leaders, and other prominent figures to discuss important topics.
The discussions centered on youth involvement in dialogue, peacebuilding, policymaking, and sustainable development in their countries and beyond.
Al-Issa reiterated the need for collaborative efforts to empower youth.
“We must invest in their potential, as investing in youth is an investment in our present and future,” he said.
Moreover, Al-Issa emphasized the importance of proper planning and effective programs, particularly in education and training.
He urged finding and addressing the barriers that prevent young people from receiving quality education. Key obstacles include wars, poverty, corruption, poor planning, and family issues, and he emphasized the need for joint efforts to resolve these challenges.
He discussed the role of youth in interfaith and intercultural dialogue, the impact of extremism on some young people, and their key role in charitable work.
Al-Issa concluded by stressing that addressing youth issues requires more than just discussions. It’s crucial to turn positive ideas into effective, actionable plans and to work together, as this is a shared responsibility.
