Amman – Talal Abu-Ghazaleh Knowledge Forum (TAGKF) held a panel discussion entitled "Reflection on the Crown Prince’s Speech" in the presence of a large youth gathering under the patronage of Dr. Talal Abu-Ghazaleh.

The session timing which coincides with the International Youth Day celebrations was intended to reflect on the speech of His Royal Highness Crown Prince Al Hussein Bin Abdullah recently delivered to the students of Al Hussein Bin Talal University in Ma'an. The speech tackled many topics concerning the youth and the challenges they face.

 

Dr. Talal Abu-Ghazaleh expressed his great pleasure in welcoming the youth in the panel which reflects the royal directives. He emphasized that  TAG-Org is fully committed to the vision of  His Majesty King Abdullah regarding the important role of the youth should play as leaders of change and in building the desired future for our beloved country.

Abu-Ghazaleh affirmed the urgent necessity of changing the prevailing negative mindset by providing the youth with platforms for dialogue and interaction. "The youth must be activated rather than organized” he said, adding  “They must take the Crown Prince as their role model and his speech which included positive messages as a motivating force for innovation; creativity and leadership so that they can overcome their challenges, break the stereotypes and ultimately move Jordan forward towards a bright future”.

 

Abu-Ghazaleh also referred to the content of the Prince’s speech affirming the important role of youth saying: "Here comes your turn to build and achieve growth for Jordan by your own way and by using the tools of your age. Each generation has different identity, prospects and challenges."

"The world where we live will change for the next generations" Abu-Ghazaleh added; quoting from his book “A Brave Knowledge World” which is due for publication in November.   

Abu-Ghazaleh praised His Royal Highness's call for continuous development and new methods of thinking. He added: "I understand His Royal Highness's call for knowledge, innovation, leadership and creation. It coincides with the objectives of the Talal Abu-Ghazaleh University College for Innovation (TAGUC) which will start next October."

He said that His Royal Highness had identified the road to success by change and renovation.

He added: "His Royal Highness recommended scientific research. This, he said, represents the organization of Arab States Research and Education Networks (ASREN) presided over by HE Dr. Talal Abu-Ghazaleh - though under honorary chairmanship of the Secretary General of the Arab League- which established internet connection between Arab research centers with similar entities in Europe and the rest of the World.”
