RIYADH: The Human Capability Development Program — one of the initiatives of Saudi Vision 2030 — has unveiled the program for the second Human Capability Initiative conference.
To be held under the patronage of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, the conference will take place on April 13-14 at the King Abdulaziz International Conference Center in Riyadh under the theme “Beyond Readiness.”
The conference sessions will center around three main themes — the first focuses on unlocking potential to develop human capabilities by leveraging cutting-edge technologies to create lifelong learning opportunities, support research and innovation, and enhance the skills needed to adapt to global changes.
The second theme underscores the significance of embedding core values and strengthening a sense of belonging to cultivate cohesive societies that collaborate effectively to achieve development goals.
The third theme focuses on channeling efforts toward creating opportunities and fostering cross-sector partnerships to amplify impact and develop sustainable solutions for a thriving future.
The conference’s dialogue sessions will be hosted across five key platforms, each dedicated to different aspects of human capability development — the Beyond Future Readiness Arena, Human Capability Initiative Dialogues, L.A.B Stage, Mastery Stage, and Success Stage.
The conference will bring together more than 300 speakers, including thought leaders, experts and policymakers, participating in 120 dialogue sessions.
The goal is to facilitate insightful discussions and exchange perspectives on enhancing human capabilities to keep pace with global advancements.
The conference will host sessions on the role of human capabilities as a catalyst for economic growth by exploring strategies to unlock potential and drive prosperity.
Discussions will also focus on global equity and the creation of inclusive opportunities through a comprehensive and balanced approach.
Additionally, the impact of artificial intelligence on human capabilities will be examined, highlighting both the growth opportunities it presents and the need for well-balanced, sustainable solutions.

He highlighted that the diverse range of topics covered in the program underscored a commitment to comprehensive dialogue, fostering greater investment in human capability development and equipping individuals to successfully navigate future challenges.
