Dr. Hossam Badrawi says about the forum: In a wonderful and unprecedented form, and a healthy cultural meeting at Heliopolis University, students from different social backgrounds, boys and girls, old and young, with professors, teachers, trainers, and representatives of Egypt’s positive, effective and successful civil society, merged in a genius civil framework, from which it disappeared Allergies, and all farmers from Upper Egypt, the oases, the delta, and the university youth merged with science, art, music and culture… I was fascinated by this gathering, and I saw Egypt for its reality, simple and complex at the same time. Egypt is more beautiful than we think, and as soon as you open your eyes to its beauty in its people, you will be proud of it and it. Bravo Al Abouleish and Bravo Heliopolis University,,
