Kuwait’s Ambassador to the United Kingdom, Bader Al-Munikh, received a Kuwaiti delegation of persons with disabilities, led by Mishaal Al-Kilab, a member of the Capital Governorate Council, as part of their participation in the summer program of the Gulf Academy for Leadership and Innovation (GALI), held in the United Kingdom from the 4th to the 10th of the current month.
In a statement to KUNA, Ambassador Al-Munikh welcomed the Kuwaiti delegation at the embassy premises, praising the enthusiasm, ambition, and commitment demonstrated by the delegation members, and reaffirming Kuwait’s commitment to supporting young Kuwaitis in educational and cultural initiatives that broaden their horizons and enhance their leadership skills.
He noted that these efforts contribute to preparing a promising generation that will lead the country’s future development, reflecting Kuwait’s ongoing investment in shaping future leaders. He expressed his appreciation to the Capital Governorate for its support of young Kuwaitis, and to delegation leader Mishaal Al-Kilab for her dedicated leadership and commitment to providing meaningful educational and leadership opportunities for young Kuwaitis.
He commended their efforts in promoting the values of inclusion, empowerment, and equal opportunity, particularly for students with special needs, ensuring that all young people have access to learning and leadership opportunities. He also praised the summer mentoring and guidance program offered by the Gulf Academy for Leadership and Innovation (GALI), noting that it brings together outstanding youth from across the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries.
He emphasized that such initiatives play a vital role in preparing the next generation of leaders by strengthening leadership, innovation, creativity, dialogue, and mutual understanding among civilizations.
For her part, Al-Kilab praised Ambassador Al-Munikh’s efforts to facilitate the delegation’s mission in the United Kingdom. She stated that the delegation, which included students with special needs, did not merely participate in the summer program; rather, their peers without disabilities assumed leadership and supervisory roles, “thereby conveying authentic messages embodied in inclusion, empowerment, and inspiration.”
The program involves 100 promising individuals from various GCC countries, offering opportunities for direct interaction with leaders and experts, as well as participation in interactive dialogues, workshops, and field visits.
