Starting from Monday, December 15, until December 16, 2025, at its headquarters in the Republic of Tunisia, the Arab Organization for Education, Culture and Science (Education Department) will hold an expert meeting to discuss and present the Arab Strategy for Talent, Creativity and Innovation in Education for the period extending from 2026 to 2035, and the ten-year implementation plan it includes, performance measurement indicators, and follow-up and evaluation mechanisms. This meeting comes within the framework of completing joint Arab efforts in the field of caring for the gifted, as ALECSO has worked since its inception to develop and implement specific programs and projects aimed at supporting talent, creativity and innovation in Arab educational systems, and enhancing integration between national policies and the common Arab vision. It should be noted that the Sixth Conference of Arab Ministers of Education, held in Riyadh in March 2008, approved the preparation of the Arab strategy for talent and creativity in education, as a reference framework guiding joint Arab action in this field. In its updated form, the strategy aims to establish specialized Arab references in the field of talent and creativity, organize specialized scientific seminars and conferences, encourage young people to develop future thinking, and enhance their abilities to research and investigate, in a way that contributes to discovering young energies, nurturing them and motivating them to innovate and excel. The strategy also includes a phased implementation plan extending over ten years, which includes practical, implementable programmes, clear measurement indicators, and governance mechanisms that ensure sustainability and integration among Arab countries. ALECSO plays a pivotal role in following up on the implementation of the strategy and evaluating it periodically, by preparing interim evaluation reports, measuring the educational and developmental impact of its outcomes, and providing the necessary recommendations for its development to keep pace with global changes and future trends in the field of talent, creativity and innovation in education.
