AMMONNEWS - riday will mark the 25th birthday of HRH Crown Prince Hussein.
The eldest son of Their Majesties King Abdullah and Queen Rania, His Royal Highness was born in Amman on June 28, 1994.
A Royal Decree was issued on July 2, 2009, naming His Royal Highness as Crown Prince.
In May 2016, Crown Prince Hussein graduated from the prestigious Georgetown University in Washington, DC, where he majored in international history. His Royal Highness graduated in 2012 from King’s Academy in Madaba.
Crown Prince Hussein holds the rank of lieutenant in the Jordan Armed Forces-Arab Army and has participated in several military training courses.
Following in his father’s footsteps and emulating the King’s keenness to maintain communication with fellow Jordanians, Crown Prince Hussein has accompanied His Majesty on many visits around the Kingdom. His Royal Highness has also accompanied the King on various national occasions, and when welcoming Jordan’s guests.
The Crown Prince has given young people his utmost attention, with the Crown Prince Foundation, launched in December 2015, geared towards promoting innovation among youth and building on their creativity and potential to enable them to gain the experience necessary to reach leading professional positions in Jordan.
Reflecting His Royal Highness’ vision, the foundation supports initiatives that seek to empower young people and enhance comprehensive development around the Kingdom.
In the same vein, Al Hussein Technical University was established to enhance the quality of technical education by setting clear and effective standards in this sector nationwide, based on advanced academic programmes.
In addition to focusing on youth, Crown Prince Hussein also gives attention to sports and children, launching a number of initiatives that have reached beneficiaries around the governorates. The Crown Prince Foundation is now the legal umbrella for many of these initiatives.
The Crown Prince launched Haqiq, a youth initiative, in April 2013. It focuses on school students, training them in leadership, negotiation skills, and conflict resolution. It also promotes volunteerism, dialogue and constructive democratic thought, thus enhancing young people’s sense of belonging and their ability to serve their communities.
In sports, His Royal Highness launched the Qusai Initiative to advance the professional performance of sports therapists and others specialised in treating athletes, as well as enhance the level of programmes specialised in sports therapy.
In late 2014, the Crown Prince launched the Hearing Without Borders initiative to mitigate the suffering of deaf children by facilitating cochlear implant procedures for them and establishing centres around Jordan to offer them speech therapy.
The initiative has brought many specialised international physicians to Jordan, conducting surgeries under the umbrella of the Royal Medical Services, and at King Abdullah University Hospital and Prince Hamzah Hospital.
A specialised national medical team has also been formed under the initiative, conducting surgeries for some 600 children, and providing 1,350 hearing aids.
Out of His Royal Highness’ belief in the need to hone the technical skills of young people and enhance their knowledge and academic capabilities, student exchange agreements have been signed with MIT and NASA, with Jordanian universities also working with these institutions on joint projects focusing on water, energy and the environment.
To inspire and address youth’s passion for innovation in space technology, Masar, an initiative of the Crown Prince Foundation, was also launched.
It started with the first NASA interns, whose research and interest in nanosatellite technology inspired them to establish the CubeSat programme and its design of 'JY1-SAT' Jordan’s first satellite in memory of King Hussein (who held the call sign of JY1).
The satellite, designed by these students, will be dedicated to research, training, and education.
