I am Haythem from Egypt; I believe that it is very important to give youth a chance and to be empowered by the needed competencies to lead their world.

I work as a freelance trainer with a focus on Youth Development; I was one of the co-founders of a number of organizations in Egypt like the Sustainable Development Association (SDA) and the Egyptian Youth NGOs Federation.

I worked at the League of Arab States (LAS) to establish: (LAS Youth Forum) which multiplied into several youth activities in the Arab Region and built a stronger partnership with the Council of Europe. I worked a lot with the Anna Lindh Foundation.

I am a boy scout since young age, and I love to meet new people and learn about other cultures.

Mainly, I work as a learning designer. My responsibility is to create space for learning. I have to create the circumstance where learning appears. In my vocabulary “space” and “circumstance” have an extensive range meaning. What do I do practically? I ask stupid, smart, provocative, supportive questions. I split people in small groups and then invite again to a big group. I ask them to shout, to listen what silence is speaking to them. I encourage them to jump, to climb, to play, to draw, to speak or not to do these things and many other things. Is it not related to art?  Love what you do or do what you love. This is my motto. I am really passionate to help to expand the self, to learn and grow, progress towards the realization of a human potential.
