The forum's key topics on the agenda include incentives for electric vehicles, the development of green hydrogen, and the integration of technical and vocational green education into national curricula. Participants will also examine the potential for international electrical connectivity, as Arab nations seek to enhance their renewable energy infrastructure.

The Arab Renewable Energy Commission has emphasised the importance of a comprehensive strategy that aligns education with the labor market, particularly highlighting the need for skills in technical, vocational, and educational areas. Jordan, recognised as a regional leader in these initiatives, is expected to play a pivotal role in shaping the discussions.
