Doha, Qatar - QIYADA, a Qatar Foundation youth initiative, is returning for its second edition on September 25 and 26 to provide a platform for Muslim youth aged 17 to 24 to explore faith, identity, leadership and community. With a focus on addressing the complex issues faced by young people today, such as artificial intelligence, mental wellbeing, identity, purpose, and belonging, the initiative aims to create a space for honest discussions and provide practical tools and frameworks for navigating these challenges.
Organizers have expanded the platform based on positive feedback from last year's event, which drew over 1,400 participants. Sessions will be led by speakers from Qatar, the GCC and beyond, and will take place in both Arabic and English. In addition to talks and workshops, the programme includes a youth short-film competition, offering young people a chance to share their experiences and perspectives.
