A symposium on “Muslim Youth and Contemporary Challenges” was held at Al-Balaghi Center for Al-Khoei Institute in Najaf al-Ashraf on Wednesday, 27/12/2023, with the participation of a group of research centres and university professors from different countries, including Iraq.

Assistant teacher Hassan Al Saraf represented the UNESCO Chair in the symposium. Several points and opinions were discussed regarding many of the problems and crises facing the Islamic community in general and the Muslim youth in the Islamic and Western countries in particular. The most critical issues are the rights, freedoms and crisis of moral depravity, as well as the economic problems of unemployment and poverty in the Arabic and Islamic world. Participants tried to present several solutions to these critical challenges facing Muslim youth.
