Testimonials Dean Proctor EGM Retail and Consumer Banking Commercial bank Speaker
James Callahan Public Affairs Officer U.S. Embassy (Doha) Speaker
"I've been completely taken by the energy, youth's enthusiasm and their determination to succeed. Some of the questions they asked were completely insightful for the young people and it has been thoroughly enjoyable".
"I found the conference extremely interesting for myself, primarily, because i was terribly impressed by enthusiasm of the people who participated. There was energy in each of the sessions, that i visited, there was energy in the room, when we just finished the panel interview. I was very impressed by all the participants and it's always interesting to be involved in such a conference with students from all over the world. It's exciting!"
Maya Ali Omran Qatar University Delegate "Actually, I brought my sister with me, because i really enjoyed the conference last time. I wanted her to live this experience; it is a new thing, it's just different from school or university. You can learn new things in a new way".
Alaa Kilani The Cambridge School "Youth Change Everything" means that the youth in Qatar can make a difference. Not only adults can do the big work and make big difference in this country, youth can do stuff as well. We have potential, we have energy, we can do just as much as anyone else".
Jeanine Bailey Empower People Trainer 'My work involves working with organizations and senior leadership, which is fantastic. For me it's about being up to influence leadership, to be up to make a difference, to make a change. But i also think that leadership and change comes from down, it starts from an early age. I think it's really important to be able to influence the youth. "Youth Change Everything" is a great initiative. I wanted to get involved, because I would really like to see people being empowered from every level".
Shareef Mostafa Batata Associate Director of SME Programs Silatech, Speaker "I think that the conference today went very well, we had some exciting questions in the end, at Q&A session. It was great to see, how everyone was engaged, how everyone had their own perspectives of the challenges that they are facing, that society is facing. We had some opportunities also after the conference to exchange some ideas as well."
Erica C. Chiusano Cultural Attaché U.S. Embassy (Doha) Trainer "Youth Change Everything" means that everything is possible. Youth here have so many opportunities and they are so capable just from what i saw on the session today. Everybody is so energetic, working really hard. I felt like, all of them were ready to start their own organizations. There is so much potential, and young people should always feel like they have the ability to change anything, and just because they are young doesn't mean that anything should stop them"
