From his own resources… Luminous lessons in leadership and humanity
In an era where words often outweigh actions, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman presents a fresh and living lesson in genuine leadership and humanity. The Crown Prince’s unprecedented and generous donation of one billion Saudi riyals (approximately 267 million US dollars) from his personal funds to the National Developmental Housing Foundation (Sakan), through the “Jood Eskan” initiative, reflects a profound commitment to serving the citizens.Yet, the true beauty of this act lies not merely in its extraordinary value, but in the deep messages it conveys — messages deserving of thoughtful reflection and admiration.First: A generous donation... Opening the widest doors of givingFor a nation’s leader to make a donation of this scale from personal wealth speaks not only of...

From his own resources… Luminous lessons in leadership and humanity

Europe’s bid to stand alone
In recent weeks, European nations have been grappling with a shifting geopolitical reality: the United States, under President Donald Trump’s influence and perhaps again in the near future, appears increasingly insistent that Europe should manage its own fate and shoulder the consequences of its choices. This stance is hardly surprising—Trump has long expressed frustration over what he perceives as America’s disproportionate burden in defending a continent unwilling to invest adequately in its own security.At the same time, as European leaders champion their support for Ukraine and call for strategic autonomy, it is as though the continent is telling itself, in that familiar, world-weary voice: “Let me be.”Should this divergence continue over the next four years, it will reshape...

Where learning takes root and sustainability grows
Saudi Arabia’s natural landscape is rich, diverse, and defined by its distinct character. From its mountain ranges and expansive deserts to fertile valleys, highlands, lakes, and coastlines, every region reveals a unique ecological identity shaped by geography and time. This environmental wealth holds enduring value as a national asset, calling for preservation, restoration, and stewardship for generations to come. The Saudi Green Initiative (SGI) stands as a bold national step toward a more sustainable future. With an ambition to rehabilitate over 74 million hectares of land, it reimagines the balance between progress and environmental responsibility. And behind every transformation, there is always a driving force — education that inspires, awareness that empowers, and engagement...

Where learning takes root and sustainability grows

The season has begun — and one comment shook us all
By Sara Von Kienegger Did Helmut Marko, the so-called “Doctor of Motorsport,” really say he’s concerned about Max Verstappen’s future? And now we’re hearing whispers of a possible sabbatical? By the age of 27, Verstappen had already secured four world championships. He claimed his first in 2021—edging out seven-time champion Lewis Hamilton in a now-iconic season—and went on to dominate the sport through 2024, winning title after title with unwavering consistency. For me, Formula 1 isn’t just a sport—it’s part of my upbringing. Growing up in Austria, the sound of burning rubber on asphalt was a familiar soundtrack each spring. When the season started, windows flew open, fresh air filled the farmhouse, and families gathered around the TV. The men watched intently, the...

Towards Green HR Policies in Saudi companies
By Dr. Nawaf Alhusseini In different capacities, Saudi companies have embraced green initiatives to support environmental protection. Examples abound of manufacturing companies using emission control technologies, banks providing favorable terms for green loans, and businesses using energy more efficiently, reducing printed material, and managing waste more effectively. And there is a surge in sustainability reporting among the larger companies in response to the Capital Market Authority 2021 guidelines to promote ESG reporting (Environmental, Social and Governance), and ESG committees are being formed. With all such efforts it can be said that the Saudi corporate landscape has responded well to Vision 2023’s call for going green.Acknowledging these developments, one may ask if more can...

Eight years that changed Saudi Arabia

Dr. Nasser Albiqami
The modus operandi of Mohammed bin Salman’s reshaping of future during 8 ambitious years  
On the eighth anniversary of the pledge of allegiance to Prince Mohammed bin Salman as the Crown Prince, Saudi Arabia stands proud on the ground of a new reality forged by a young extraordinary leader who shouldered the ambitions of an entire nation through investing in the Saudi people, fully confident on their capabilities, and believing that this ancient and rich nation possessed the potential to position it among the great powers. The moment Prince Mohammed bin Salman assumed the office of Crown Prince was not merely a matter of reorganizing the ruling family and facilitating the transfer of power to the generation of grandchildren of the founding king. Rather, it was the birth of an integrated intellectual and developmental project, based on a modern state in its conception, youthful...

Riyadh at the heart of global conflict resolution
Once again, all eyes are on Riyadh as frenetic diplomatic efforts unfold to bring warring parties to the negotiating table. These efforts aim to prevent the Ukrainian crisis from escalating into a NATO-led conflict against Russia — an outcome that could push the world toward a third world war.Incoming reports indicate that solutions are emerging, with the most critical being the consolidation of the truce.This would open diplomatic channels and help contain the conflict in a region where stability remains fragile.The United States, eager to find a resolution, is also accelerating efforts to bridge the gap between its administration and the Ukrainian leadership, a move that could prove pivotal in upcoming peace negotiations.Achieving reconciliation is in everyone's best interest, and...
