His Royal Highness Crown Prince Al Hussein bin Abdullah II on Saturday attended the launch of “Tawasol 2024” forum, held in its second edition at the King Hussein Business Park.

In remarks at a session on how education output can meet labour market demand, Crown Prince Al Hussein called for continuing to modernise and develop curricula to keep up with global developments in education.

His Royal Highness said the education ministry, as well as various educational institutions, should build the capacities of teachers and provide a suitable educational environment that offers career guidance to students, stressing the importance of encouraging students to embark on entrepreneurial experiences after gaining the necessary skills through training and education.

The forum, organised by the Crown Prince Foundation, offers an annual platform for interactive national dialogue to exchange visions and ideas on issues related to young people and society.
