Youth Summer Academy Opens

Initiative offers educational, leadership and creative activities for beneficiary families

The Royal Humanitarian Foundation (RHF) has launched its Summer Programme 2026, featuring a comprehensive lineup of educational, training, cultural and recreational activities aimed at developing the skills and talents of children and families under its care.

The programme brings together mothers and children affiliated with the foundation, reflecting RHF's commitment to making productive use of the summer holiday by enhancing participants' abilities, nurturing their talents and encouraging personal growth across a range of fields.

This year's programme focuses on empowerment and talent development, with one of its flagship initiatives being the Youth Academy 2026, designed for the foundation's young beneficiaries. The academy aims to strengthen leadership, creativity, teamwork and character development while fostering positive personal growth.

The summer schedule also includes several specialised initiatives, such as the Youth Bank Leadership and Talent Development Programme, the Media and Creativity Academy, and the Beacon of Thought programme. In addition, participants will benefit from professional training workshops, vocational sessions, sports activities, and cultural and social programmes tailored to different age groups.

These initiatives are intended to broaden participants' knowledge, develop practical skills and encourage the constructive use of their free time.

Acting Secretary-General of the Royal Humanitarian Foundation, Engineer Ibrahim Dalhan Al Dosari, visited the Children's Academy to review the progress of the programmes and activities. During the visit, he met with participating children and programme supervisors.

Al Dosari said the foundation remains committed to offering integrated summer programmes that meet the needs of its beneficiaries while helping them discover and develop their talents.
