Queen Rania's Iftar for the youth

Queen Rania hosted an Iftar banquet at Al Husseiniya Palace on Wednesday for a group of young Jordanian people, including volunteers, journalists, artists and entrepreneurs.

In an address to them, she said: "It makes me happy to see you getting to know each other and exchanging ideas that help serve our community."

She continued: "This is especially important in light of technology's growing influence over our relationships and the way we communicate with each other."

Emphasising the importance of embracing technological advancements without losing sight of crucial values, she added: "It has never been easier to create and share content that spreads divisiveness and hatred, while eroding our capacity for empathy and compassion.

"What sets us apart is how well we treat each other," Queen Rania noted, "even as we strive for change and advancement, we continue to hold on to our longstanding principles."

Reflecting on the opportunity that Ramadan provides to consider self-improvement, she concluded: "His Majesty and I have always been inspired by future generations to keep moving forward. Your hard work and innovative thinking are a great source of optimism for us."
