DOHA: The Youth Company, Qatar — will start Run The World Festival with ‘RTW Talks’ — a series of talk shows from today to November 30, on how youth can lead healthier and happier lives.
The delegates will be given an opportunity to touch base with some of the world’s champions in health, wellbeing, sports, and innovation.
The first RTW Talk is to be held at Youth Hub today and will feature the impact of videogames on youth, social influences, and on the whole, explore their advantages and disadvantages.
As TYC’s largest and most-anticipated youth event of the year, Run The World presents an exciting opportunity for youth between 14 years and 29 years to not only participate in a range of sports, fun activities, showcase outstanding talents, and explore worldwide cultures — all of which will form the main events of the three-day RTWF in December.
Participants could also get involved in community projects and conferences such as RTW Talk and RTW Legacy. These additional programmes are aimed to make this year’s edition a more community-enriching and empowering experience.
“RTWF 2013 is not just about encouraging youth to experience healthy and active lifestyles. It is about gaining new experiences, awareness and learning new things not only about ourselves, but also about other individuals and the community around us. In RTW Talk, the first part of this exciting edition, we want young people to listen to what experts have to say about their own life-changing experiences, and the advice they share for becoming healthier, happier, and more engaged citizens of the world,” said Abdulrahman Sajid, Director of Youth Hub and YESS.
Speakers and delegates will be invited to take part in the forums and engage in speeches, panel discussions, debates, and interactive activities that inform, motivate and connect the participants.
