DIWANIEH

A Space for Dialogue, Exchange, and Collective Learning.

Diwanieh is one of Leaders of Tomorrow’s flagship initiatives, designed to bring together young people, experts, decision-makers, and community members in an open and inclusive space for dialogue and knowledge exchange. Inspired by the traditional concept of the diwanieh as a gathering place for discussion and community engagement, the initiative creates opportunities for meaningful conversations around issues that shape society and influence the lives of young people.

Through interactive discussions, panel sessions, community dialogues, and networking events, Diwanieh encourages participants to explore diverse perspectives, challenge assumptions, and engage constructively with complex social, economic, political, and cultural topics. The initiative promotes a culture of respectful dialogue, critical thinking, and active participation, enabling young people to better understand the challenges facing their communities and identify opportunities for positive change.

Diwanieh serves as a bridge between youth and key stakeholders by facilitating direct engagement with policymakers, practitioners, academics, entrepreneurs, and civil society leaders. These exchanges help strengthen civic awareness, encourage informed participation in public life, and foster stronger connections between communities and decision-makers.

Over the years, Diwanieh has provided a platform for discussions on youth empowerment, social innovation, entrepreneurship, education, human rights, gender equality, civic engagement, sustainability, and other pressing development issues.

MOHAKA

MO7AKA (MOHAKA), meaning “simulation” in Arabic, is an innovative experiential learning initiative developed by Leaders of Tomorrow that uses immersive role-playing and simulation-based experiences to empower young people with the skills, knowledge, and perspectives needed to become active, responsible, and empathetic leaders. Through interactive learning, participants are encouraged to step into unfamiliar roles, challenge their assumptions, and develop a deeper understanding of complex social, political, and economic issues.

Designed to move beyond traditional training methods, MO7AKA creates realistic scenarios that allow participants to experience diverse viewpoints, navigate real-world challenges, and practice collaborative problem-solving in a safe and engaging environment. The initiative strengthens critical thinking, communication, negotiation, leadership, and decision-making skills while fostering dialogue, mutual respect, and inclusive participation.

Over the years, MO7AKA has been implemented through workshops, residential retreats, educational programmes, and youth exchanges that address a wide range of themes, including democracy, human rights, gender equality, social inclusion, conflict resolution, civic engagement, and public policy. By encouraging participants to explore different perspectives and question preconceived ideas, the initiative helps cultivate empathy, resilience, and a stronger commitment to positive social change.

FADFED

As part of Leaders of Tomorrow’s mission to empower youth and foster active citizenship, FadFed contributes to building a more inclusive and connected society by encouraging participation, promoting positive dialogue, and creating opportunities for young people to inspire change through their ideas and experiences.

FADFED, translated “Speak it Out” or “Let it Out” in Arabic, is an open platform to engage people to creatively express their opinions anonymously on issues that matter to them. It is an interactive research tool designed to collect and analyze qualitative and quantitative data. FADFED can be utilized to conduct public polling, internal organizational research, and more.

FADFED involves placing white sheets of paper in public spaces and inviting individuals to write on these sheets of paper their responses to a given question/s. Researchers using FADFED categorize respondents by demographics as suits their research purposes; for instance, by age or gender. A researcher does so by establishing a color coding of markers used at a particular event. Red markers might be given to women, or green markers to those over 50 years old, as an example. FADFED generates both written and oral discussion and debate on subject topics, and thus raises awareness of often controversial or politically sensitive issues.
