A meeting convened today in Aden, the temporary capital of Yemen, under the leadership of Minister of Youth and Sports, Naif Saleh Al-Bakri. The primary focus of the meeting was the action plan for the “Youth Working Group” project, set to launch at the end of October.
The gathering included Dr. Munir Mani, the Undersecretary for the Youth Sector, Dr. Hassan Abdul-Rab, head of the technical office, and various directors from the general administrations within the sector.
