capabilities of Jordanian youth, Khasawneh stressed the significance of recent
constitutional and legislative amendments that have created opportunities for
young individuals to actively participate in decision-making processes.
These changes include reducing the candidacy
age for elections and setting quotas for youth representation in political
parties and leadership positions.
Youth encouraged to participate
politically and economically
Encouraging youth to engage in political
and economic spheres, Khasawneh emphasized the opportunity for their
participation in economic decision-making.

political parties and highlighted the effectiveness of party and election laws
in enabling youth to contribute to decision-making processes. Khasawneh also

youth by avoiding excessive promises and prioritizing fulfillment.
Breaking barriers and creating a
conducive environment for youth
Affirming the commitment of the Jordanian
state to support youth and overcome barriers in party work, Khasawneh
highlighted the importance of reference documents for the three reform tracks
launched at the beginning of Jordan's second centennial.
He acknowledged the challenges faced by
Jordan and its youth but expressed confidence in their abilities to overcome
difficulties and utilize untapped potential for the benefit of the nation.
1 million work opportunities project
explained
Addressing the details of the economic
modernization project, Khasawneh clarified that the proposed 1 million work
opportunities were not intended to be 100,000 job openings per year for 10
years but rather a total of 1 million jobs by the end of the 10-year period.
He emphasized that the project aimed to
generate these opportunities primarily through the participation of the private
and business sectors, with economic growth projections serving as the basis for
this initiative.
