Libya is in urgent need of an economic vision for the future. Developing one can complement the political process and over time, steer it toward peace and stability. However, it will require a new generation of leadership with a deep understanding of socio-economic issues.
The Youth Economic Research Forum takes the first step in this direction. Under the guidance of trainers and practitioners at the Mediterranean Platform, Libyan youth from across the country will build their research and policy dialogue skills. The project’s inclusive platform brings them together to discuss Libya’s economic vision with peers, experts, and key stakeholders from both Libya and abroad. The project is managed by the World Bank’s Libya Development Trust Fund (LDTF), and implemented by the Luiss Mediterranean Platform, in partnership with UNIMED – Mediterranean Universities Union.
