ACT Targets Youth for its Third Session of the "Jerusalem Youth" to Foster Discussions on Jerusalem's Issues
12 March 2025

In an engaging and interactive setting, ACT organized the third session of the Jerusalem Dialogue series on Monday, March 10, 2025, bringing together more than 35 young men and women from diverse age groups, geographic areas, and cultural backgrounds across Jerusalem.

The session featured an in-depth discussion on the findings of a public opinion survey and a policy paper, reflecting the perspectives of Jerusalem’s youth on key issues facing their city. Participants demonstrated a profound awareness and a strong sense of responsibility toward Jerusalem’s present and future. Many expressed their appreciation for this platform, stating: "We have missed this kind of gathering… It has been years since we last came together for such discussions," and "Thank you for organizing this. We hope these sessions continue, as we are in great need of such meaningful conversations."

The session was moderated by youth facilitator Waad Qannam, while Dr. Luna Shamieh presented the survey results and policy paper. Through initiatives like this, ACT remains committed to providing a space for Jerusalem’s youth to voice their perspectives and actively contribute to shaping the future of their city.
