In an ever-changing and fast-paced world, the Youth x Hub welcomes Youth from all walks of life, aged between 15 and 35 - whether students, employees or entrepreneurs. The Hub will be the platform to connect Youth to each other, bounce thoughts back and forth, and launch-spring their ideas.

So HOW did we find the people and connect their ideas?

The chief belief of the the UAE leadership and Ministry of Youth is that Young people can design solutions to our greatest challenges. The first challenge was creating a central forum for Youth to connect and share their ideas.

We made an intentional and assertive push to reach Emirati Youth across all 7 Emirates and around the world.

Then the newspapers pitched in and sent out invitations for Youth to contribute their ideas for how the UAE must move forward. In the first two weeks, we heard from over 2,000 Youth across all 7 Emirates.

Finally, we set up Youth Circles, our signature platform that creates a two-way dialogue between Youth and government. A Youth Circle is simple, really; it involves us listening. Listening skillfully to Youth. Then we come up with transparent outcomes from the discussions.

Out of these discussions with Youth came the idea for the Youth xHub, our first major initiative.

We collected every message Youth sent us from calls, emails, social media, newspapers and Youth Circles.

X marks a spot, multiplies numbers, and defines a generation. X represents the Roman numeral 10 and also wins 10 points on the Scrabble board. It is one of the least-utilized letters in the alphabet, the most utilized letter in science and mathematics, and the rays across the greater electromagnetic spectrum that allow us to see inside the body without making an incision.
