Crown Prince: Jordan's future lies in youth, technology, innovation

His Royal Highness Crown Prince Al Hussein bin Abdullah II underscored the critical role of youth and technology in shaping Jordan's future during a keynote speech at the Tawasol 2025 Forum on Saturday. Speaking to an audience of innovators, officials, and young professionals, the Crown Prince emphasized the need to invest in human capital, research, and development to build adaptive and innovative economies. 'In advanced economies, value is no longer measured by factory output, but by intellectual output,' he said. He began his address by reaffirming the values that have defined Jordan since its founding. 'Perseverance, dedication, and excellence are constant traits of the Jordanian identity,' he noted. Addressing the country's youth, Crown Prince Al Hussein said, 'You and your peers are the driving force behind the Jordanian dream. We aim to realize that dream by equipping our young talents with the tools of the modern era, especially in light of the growing role of technology in all aspects of life.' He spoke about the importance of communication in a world increasingly defined by polarization and uncertainty. 'Impressions sometimes outweigh facts,' he said, calling for dialogue and active listening to foster trust, hope, and unity. Looking to the future, the Crown Prince envisioned practical applications of advanced technologies in Jordan. He highlighted the potential of locally developed drones for transporting urgent medical supplies, monitoring utilities, and supporting agriculture. He also spoke of artificial intelligence playing a major role in public sector decision-making, healthcare, and education. 'In the classroom, I see a student using an AI-powered assistant to support her learning, while teachers focus on students facing greater challenges,' he said. 'In the health sector, I imagine a citizen accessing a specialist remotely without the need to travel.' He also expressed his hopes for the Future Technology Council to serve as a model for public institutions, promoting innovation and enhancing service delivery. Reiterating Jordan's strategic vision, the Crown Prince stated, 'We want Jordan to be a regional hub for smart solutions and to collaborate closely with our Arab neighbors to serve shared interests.' He concluded by highlighting Jordan's strengths—stability, resilience, and a wealth of human talent—as assets that position the country for regional leadership. 'If knowledge is power, then creative ideas are wealth,' he said. 'Enlightened minds build nations, strengthen foundations, and create the difference we seek.'
