The Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Knowledge Foundation (MBRF) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Arab Council for Social Responsibility (ACSR) in Egypt to establish a cooperation framework focused on Arab youth and community engagement.
“The ACSR seeks to support Arab youth and leverage cutting-edge tools, especially artificial intelligence and data science, to create promising employment opportunities. In line with this goal, the ACSR emphasizes guiding young people towards programs that address key areas like the environment, community entrepreneurship, healthcare, and food security,” said Dr. Randa Rizk, Secretary-General of the ACSR.
According to Dr. Rizk, the collaboration with the MBRF is aimed at supporting these initiatives with significant economic, community, and environmental impact.
“The goal is to broaden the concept of community responsibility to include economic and societal empowerment, rather than just aid and donations,” added Dr. Rizk.
Signed on the sidelines of the second Youth Knowledge Forum, the MoU will facilitate collaboration on knowledge-sharing events, including workshops, symposiums, and training courses, aimed at raising knowledge and economic awareness among Arab youth regionally and internationally, the two parties shared.
“By expanding our network of partners, the MBRF is committed to supporting young Arab talent in realizing their potential and making a positive impact on their communities. We look forward to playing an active role in this partnership with the ACSR and creating an environment that encourages Arab youth to grow and shape a resilient future,” said His Excellency Jamal bin Huwaireb, CEO of the MBRF.
