Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi has approved the annual plan proposed by the Council of Ministers to monitor various sectors and issues that concern public opinion and impact citizens' lives. This move aims to continue the dialogue and communication with citizens, following up on the outcomes of the Egypt 2026 forum. The President made these announcements through a post on his official Facebook page.
President El-Sisi instructed the government to publish the directives issued regarding the forum's recommendations on its website, along with a specific timeline for implementation and clear performance indicators. This will enable citizens and state institutions to monitor their execution. The directives were issued in response to the aspirations expressed during the forum's closing session, particularly the demands made by young people with disabilities.
The President issued three main directives. Firstly, he called for the expansion of training programs for young people at the National Academy for Training, making opportunities available to children and youth through the "Shabab Misr" platform. He also suggested organizing meetings with officials to listen to their ideas and aspirations. This move aims to engage the younger generation in the country's development.
The second directive focuses on highlighting exceptional young talents and geniuses, showcasing their achievements in public spaces. This is in addition to the "State of Innovation" program, which focuses on scientific research and talented individuals. President El-Sisi congratulated Miary Othman on winning the 2026 Arab Reading Challenge, wishing her continued success.
The third directive involves establishing a comprehensive national system to provide digital services and communication through artificial intelligence for people who are deaf or hard of hearing. The system will also offer vocational training programs and suitable job opportunities, as well as religious education services in sign language. This move aims to enhance the lives of people with disabilities.
President El-Sisi emphasized that citizens will remain at the center of the political leadership's attention. He stressed that the primary goal of holding this annual forum is to translate its outcomes into tangible actions and results that citizens can feel. The President's directives aim to improve the lives of millions of Egyptians.
