Introduction
A vibrant forum where diverse views are shared on important topics.
For generations, the majlis – “council” or “place of sitting” in Arabic – has been a pillar of Emirati society, offering the community an open forum to discuss matters of consequence. Expo 2020 is spotlighting this vital tradition with the World Majlis Programme, a series of stimulating conversations that bring Expo’s ‘Connecting Minds, Creating the Future’ theme to life.
The World Majlis programme will stage regular conversations during Expo 2020. Each conversation will bring together 8 to 10 globally recognised thought- leaders who are invited for their exceptional contributions to the theme and unique perspective on the topic. In each majlis, students and members of the public are also encouraged to contribute and engage.
