Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi has approved the annual plan proposed by the Council of Ministers to follow up on various sectors and issues that concern public opinion and impact citizens' lives. This move is part of his follow-up on the outcomes of the 2026 Forum. The President emphasized his commitment to ensuring continuous dialogue and communication with citizens.

On his official Facebook page, President El-Sisi stated that he directed the government to publish the guidelines issued regarding the forum's recommendations on a dedicated website. This publication will be accompanied by a specific timeline for implementation and clear performance indicators. The goal is to enable citizens and state institutions to monitor the execution of these recommendations.

During the closing session of the forum, young people's ambitions were highlighted, particularly the demands made by youth with determination. Successful models, such as those from "صناع المستقبل" (Creators of the Future), were also showcased. Based on this, President El-Sisi issued several directives. Firstly, he emphasized the expansion of preparatory programs for young people at the National Academy for Training.

Another key directive from President El-Sisi was to highlight exceptional and talented young individuals, particularly those who have achieved remarkable success. He mentioned that this would be done by showcasing their accomplishments in public spaces. This move is part of a broader program called "دولة الابتكار" (State of Innovation), which focuses on scientific research and nurturing talented individuals.

Specifically, President El-Sisi congratulated Miayar Othman on her victory in the 2026 Arab Reading Challenge. He expressed his best wishes for her continued success and excellence. This public acknowledgment reflects the administration's commitment to recognizing and encouraging academic and intellectual achievements among Egyptian youth.

The President reaffirmed that citizens will remain at the center of the government's attention.
