Dr. El-Sayed Kandil, President of Helwan University, on International Youth Day: "You are the driving force toward a better future."

On this day when the world celebrates youth, I would like to express my deep pride in Egypt’s young people, especially my students at Helwan University, telling them that: You are the backbone of the nation, the pulse of its present, and the hope of its future.

International Youth Day is not just a celebration, but it is a moment to reflect on your capabilities and to renew our commitment at Helwan University to support your journey. We believe in your power to create change, innovate, and lead.

Egyptian youth—especially those at Helwan University—have proven themselves responsible and capable of facing challenges and making a difference across scientific and practical fields. Under the wise leadership of His Excellency President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, we are witnessing unprecedented attention to youth through national initiatives, global forums, and development programs aimed at empowering and enhancing their skills.

At Helwan University, we believe our role goes beyond education. It includes shaping character, fostering a sense of belonging, and instilling the spirit of initiative and community engagement. That’s why we are committed to providing a comprehensive educational environment and real training opportunities that meet labor market demands and open wide horizons for excellence and success.

My dear sons and daughters, you are the driving force toward a better future. Be worthy of the trust placed in you, keep striving, stay aware, and contribute to building your homeland with love and dedication.

Wishing you all the best every year—and may each day be a step toward glory for our beloved Egypt.
