Ambassador Connect

This four-day programme during ADIPEC provides an opportunity for former participants of the Young ADIPEC programme to inspire current participants and to guide them to various energy career paths by sharing their experiences and the knowledge gained by joining the Young ADIPEC Youth Talks.

Young ADIPEC works with schools and universities to embed alumni engagement in school communities and the lives of the students, to create connections that are sustainable and accessible.

School Connect

School Connect, which takes places from May to October, aims to bridge the gap between classrooms and the energy industry, broadening the future talent pool for the energy industry and inspiring the next generation of energy leaders.

During the academic year, the School Connect team will run a series of hands-on workshops around STEM topics at select schools in the UAE, which will be delivered in partnership with Khalifa University. The interactive and inspiring learning experiences will cover themes from sustainability to innovation.

Industry Connect

This initiative will provide undergraduate students with first-hand experience in the energy industry through two-week internship experiences at energy companies in the UAE over the winter and summer breaks. This will provide students a unique opportunity to explore the industry and all that it has to offer, as well as gain valuable experience from industry professionals.

SANED

Meaning ‘to support’ in Arabic, Young ADIPEC’s SANED programme offers volunteering opportunities at ADIPEC 2024, designed to help university students and young professionals gain valuable experience, develop new skills and build their networks within the energy industry during ADIPEC 2024.

The volunteering opportunities range from moderating sessions and coordinating the Youth Talks to supervising volunteers and conducting Young ADIPEC exhibition tours.

Youth Talks

Youth Talks offer a forum for the next generation of energy professionals to connect with leaders and experts from the industry at ADIPEC, the world’s largest energy exhibition and conference. The series of sessions also offers the industry a unique opportunity to connect with, engage and empower today’s youth.

Youth Talks builds on ADIPEC’s mission to serve as an inclusive platform and provide a more powerful voice and global stage for the entire energy community, with a view to inspiring the next generation to play a bigger role in addressing critical energy challenges and supporting the energy transition.

Experimental & Edutainment Hub

The Experiential & Edutainment Hub is an on-site learning platform designed to win the hearts and minds of today’s youth and highlight the wealth and diversity of career opportunities in the energy industry.

The Hub offers eight engaging educational zones for students within the framework of STEM education and is positioned in Hall 14 at ADIPEC, which takes place at the Abu Dhabi International Exhibition Centre from 4-7 November 2024.

University Connect

Through this initiative, students from universities across the UAE will have the opportunity to participate in ADIPEC’s Innovation Sessions and sessions in the Youth Innovation Zone, which showcases innovative energy-related research being done by university students.

University Connect aims to connect the UAE’s young innovators with industry leaders over the four days of ADIPEC. These connections are intended to give students a glimpse of potential career opportunities within the energy industry. The initiative also empowers students to exchange opinions and ideas, meet young energy professionals and connect with senior representatives from the industry.

Methane Mitigation - Competition 4 Youth

The Methane Mitigation Competition is an exciting opportunity for high school students to showcase their innovative ideas to reduce methane emissions, empowering them to actively participate in climate action and contribute to a sustainable future.

Aligned with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the competition is open to students from schools across the UAE. After a robust judging process, finalists will present their solutions at ADIPEC on 5 November.

Students are encouraged to get out of their comfort zones, leverage their critical thinking skills, engage with their communities and embrace their social and environmental responsibilities.
