DOHA: Qatar based youth run social enterprise — The Youth Company International — is set to launch the 6th edition of its biannual conference on Saturday at the Cultural Creativity Centre, Qatar. The Youth Company’s flagship youth conference focuses on experiential and interactive learning for youth in Qatar aged 14 – 20 years. With the first edition of the conference being launched in March 2012, TYC has successfully reached out to 533 young people within Qatar to help them empower and discover their leadership potential.
In partnership with Qatar Ta3mal, the 6th bi-annual youth leadership conference is sponsored by the United States Department of State and is hosted by Cultural Creativity Center, located on the February 22 Street, Qatar. The September edition of the conference specifically targets on issues of youth employment around the world. Titled “Find Your Job”, the conference focuses on providing the right tools, connections, experiences, training sessions, networking opportunities and information tips on different issues and their solutions for youth unemployment.
The conference will lay the foundation of creating a dialogue among youth on why majority of Middle Eastern and North African youth are unemployed, what are the challenges, and how can we tackle them.
