The 8th Arab European Youth Forum 2024 is a unique opportunity for young leaders, activists, and stakeholders to engage in a thought-provoking discussion about intercultural dialogue and the impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on young people. The forum will gather 80 young together participants from across the Arab world and Europe to explore how AI is shaping various aspects of youth life, including education, employment, and civic engagement. Discussions will also focus on how to promote intercultural dialogue and understanding in a world increasingly influenced by AI. This year’s forum theme is particularly relevant as AI continues to develop and transform our societies. AI has the potential to create new opportunities for young people, but it also raises important challenges. The forum will provide a platform for young people to discuss these challenges and opportunities, and to develop strategies for ensuring that AI is used in a way that benefits all of society. The forum is organized and funded by the Council of Europe in cooperation with the League of Arab States and the Ministry of Youth and Sport of Egypt. It will be held in Luxor, Egypt, from October 14 to 19, 2024. This is a Fully funded conference and there is no application fee to apply.
