Youth and Prospects for Human Development in the Arab World

Publicado el 13 de diciembre 2017
2017.12.12. Casa Árabe and the Real Instituto Elcano, with the cooperation of the Regional Office for Arab States of the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) presented the results of the latest report on Arab Human Development, titled “Arab Youth and the Prospects for Human Development in a Changing Reality” in Madrid at a round table discussion on the challenges and opportunities of Arab youths within a context of change, political transformations and conflicts experienced throughout the region in recent years. Arab youths are the largest generation of youths to have existed in the Arab world over the last 50 years. 30% of the 370 million people living in Arab countries are between the ages of 15 and 29, and over 50% of the population is under 30 years old. Moreover, they are the best-prepared, most active generations of youths with the greatest connections to the rest of the world. The report also claims that they may also create major momentum for the development of these countries, while strengthening their stability and ensuring advancements in a sustainable way, if the necessary policies are implemented to give these youths a central role in defining their societies, at the political, social and economic levels. SCHEDULE 7:00 p.m. Opening Pedro Martínez-Avial, the General Director of Casa Árabe Haizam Amirah Fernández, Head Researcher on the Mediterranean and Arab World, Real Instituto Elcano 7:30 p.m. Presentations given by: Nisreen Salti, an associate professor at the Economics Department of the American University of Beirut Moderated by: Olivia Orozco, Casa Árabe’s Training and Economics Coordinator.
