This institutions, journalists, and activists from the regime's side. [00:00:06] cooperation. We see this. How much did he mislead with information and provide false information, and even sketches [00:00:10] and plays that were false [00:00:13] and claimed that [00:00:15] tries to the owners of this cause and the owners of the Syrian revolution are [00:00:17] terrorists? And today, perhaps, Razan, [00:00:21] it is not required of us as a society to judge each other in this [00:00:25] context, because there is a legal path [00:00:27] can apply this to for the state to hold accountable everyone who [00:00:30] had a hand in harming Syrians. And this path is an existing path [00:00:34] and continuous [00:00:37] to, [00:00:39] community inside Syria to to criminalize everyone who committed crimes against the Syrian people. Today, for sure, [00:00:42] and this is what we need to focus on. [00:00:46] was closer than At the time we are presenting our opinions and talking, first, [00:00:49] we should not pass judgments because we do not know [00:00:52] the circumstances of the other party. We do not know [00:00:55] what were the consequences of their decision. But the judgments [00:00:59] are certainly [00:01:03] left to the state and to the judiciary, especially. I am talking about people [00:01:06] specifically those whose hands are stained with blood. Of course, [00:01:10] We raise him on these are the people who are involved in crimes. [00:01:13] I am not saying that this is their opinion, because this is not [00:01:16] expertise abroad an opinion anymore, this is participation [00:01:19] They need a lot in this in murder. But it is not us [00:01:20] context. Many who judge, nor is it us who decide. There is a judiciary, there are trials, there is a state [00:01:25] to guide students and introduce them to that is responsible for this matter. But we content ourselves [00:01:29] with dialogue, [00:01:30] with discussion. [00:01:33] on the ground in this We leave everything to its people. Exactly. Here we want to [00:01:36] ask you, Ms. Razan, what is the solution? What is the responsibility of young people [00:01:39] when they encounter a post or a comment that contains hate [00:01:43] speech? Is the solution [00:01:44] role because we see that to ignore it, to reply, or is it possible to report it? [00:01:48] No, on the contrary, it is the duty [00:01:51] of every Syrian youth, whether an activist or a media professional [00:01:54] or in any sector, to respond to [00:01:57] information, especially the information [00:02:01] that, unfortunately, is the one [00:02:03] ignore them, and thus that sparks sedition and hatred. [00:02:07] I mean, we really noticed, before the liberation, [00:02:10] of course, that the regime and its loyalists [00:02:13] used to work on the issue, as [00:02:16] of technology to connect with I told you, as I told you a while ago, of fabrication, distortion, [00:02:19] and false plays. But unfortunately, [00:02:22] after the liberation, sometimes there are some mistakes, [00:02:26] or some exaggerations. I mean, even exaggeration [00:02:30] is part of the lie, and part of the deception. [00:02:35] this change on change them and to be able to reflect Exaggeration in presenting any thing is deception. So, [00:02:39] it is the duty of every person not to participate [00:02:42] and interact and take [00:02:45] the dialogue from the principle of hate speech [00:02:48] to the principle of dialogue with full respect. Sometimes you refute this [00:02:52] person that, no, we can [00:02:56] discuss, but in a very respectful [00:03:00] way, in a professional [00:03:03] having an impact on way. I express my opinion, and I listen to your opinion within the framework of respect and far from [00:03:06] abuse, bullying, and racism. We do not go to [00:03:09] generalization, which we see very often. This [00:03:13] generalization is strongly present on [00:03:16] social media pages and platforms. Well, to confront [00:03:19] hate speech, there must be an alternative speech [00:03:24] the way innovators deal that calls for dialogue, for, I mean, more societal [00:03:26] interaction. How can we build this point [00:03:30] in a conscious [00:03:32] be advanced in this way? The truth is, [00:03:35] this falls on the shoulders of even the individual themselves, [00:03:38] and even professional associations, [00:03:43] societies. From this organizations, media institutions, and [00:03:46] educational institutions. They have a very big role [00:03:49] in this matter. I mean, raising the awareness [00:03:53] of citizens in this [00:03:57] proud to be part direction, I mean, rising above this discourse and [00:04:00] coexisting with the people of the homeland. I mean, we are all [00:04:03] Well, to talk more about now at the beginning of building a state [00:04:06] and at the beginning [00:04:08] Rashid Al-Hamawi, here with us in of building a new homeland, and we all miss this homeland, [00:04:11] and we all [00:04:14] significant role in this can't wait to return under the roof of this homeland. We are all brothers, [00:04:17] no matter what our religion, no matter what our color, no matter what [00:04:20] our sect, we should [00:04:23] be the children of one country, one family. [00:04:27] We can build this homeland. Yes, for sure. This will be through [00:04:31] coexistence, [00:04:34] the existing expertise, especially in through civil peace, whether in discourse or in, as [00:04:39] Thimar programs or other I told you, as institutions, that they should go in this direction through workshops [00:04:43] of respect, [00:04:46] campaigns of awareness. [00:04:48] In fact, every party is capable of [00:04:52] doing many things [00:04:55] Welcome to the arrest of to try to limit this [00:04:57] discourse. [00:05:29] In general, building society does not only start [00:05:32] and does not only stop at societal awareness, but building [00:05:36] a technical Syrian society also aims [00:05:39] and enhances cooperation between competencies and innovators, [00:05:42] and entrepreneurs. Therefore, the Sing [00:05:45] 26 conference for technology and entrepreneurship [00:05:48] was launched at the Opera House in Damascus. Yes, Yara, this conference [00:05:52] opens the door for the development of the future of technology in Syria [00:05:55] and the role of technical conferences in building an interconnected network of expertise [00:05:59] and transforming innovative ideas into [00:06:08] the foundations. The Ministry of Communications [00:06:12] and Information conducts foundational [00:06:16] programs in infrastructure, in building national competencies [00:06:19] in communications and technology, in establishing startups, and all these [00:06:22] programs [00:06:24] truly benefit from the existence of a national platform that connects Syrian [00:06:29] with national needs. And this is what [00:06:32] the Sync Foundation does, and [00:06:35] we have now issued a license for it from the government, through the Ministry [00:06:39] of Social Affairs and Labor, to also be a Syrian [00:06:43] institution, in addition to being [00:06:46] an existing and organized institution in the United [00:06:49] States of America. The existence of these platforms is essential [00:06:52] and necessary. Syria today has talents distributed around [00:06:56] the world. Connecting it with the country's needs [00:06:59] in terms of digital infrastructure, the digital transformation [00:07:03] project, and other projects we are working on, is essential. [00:07:05] Helping these American companies, [00:07:09] through their Syrian founders or through [00:07:13] Syrian managers, to have a foothold [00:07:16] in Syria and start establishing businesses is [00:07:19] essential. [00:07:22] Sync is a very important opportunity for young men and women in Syria [00:07:25] who are interested in the field [00:07:29] large companies that send people [00:07:32] to speak on their behalf. Today, we have companies like Meta, [00:07:36] Google, OpenAI, Microsoft, [00:07:38] and Apple. So these companies, we [00:07:42] are completely off their map. Now, we are hoping that we will [00:07:46] gradually become a normal country like [00:07:49] any other country. Establish a company and employ [00:07:52] people. Today, the technology sector will have a greater impact on the Syrian economy than any [00:07:56] other sector. And the youth segment in Syria is, [00:08:00] I mean, the average age is in the twenties, so [00:08:02] for us, it's a very strategic segment and rarely presented [00:08:06] in countries. So the Syrian market is a very important [00:08:10] market for any technology company to expand. [00:08:13] And at the same time, we look forward to Syria [00:08:16] the region. [00:08:20] Hello, I am a content creator who has traveled between America [00:08:24] and the Middle East. I have been watching the world for nine years [00:08:28] and have visited 127 countries. [00:08:30] Today, I have spent 10 months in Syria. [00:08:33] During my visits to the 14 governorates, my passion [00:08:36] for this country grows daily. I have participated in [00:08:39] several conferences this year, and I believe that the [00:08:42] Sync conference is the most important. Syrian youth today are in [00:08:46] dire need of job opportunities. I trust that the technology [00:08:49] sector will witness a qualitative leap next [00:08:52] year with the entry of new investments [00:08:55] and companies and the lifting of sanctions. This is the ideal place and time [00:08:58] to empower youth and secure quality jobs that support [00:09:02] their families and revitalize the economy. I have built [00:09:06] wonderful partnerships here, and I am very [00:09:09] of this event. [00:09:16] this topic, we welcome the technology expert, Mr. [00:09:20] the studio. Good morning, welcome. Good morning. First, [00:09:24] let's start with the conference itself. What is the importance [00:09:27] of holding such a conference today, and what [00:09:30] will it add to the Syrian technical scene? In fact, the [00:09:34] Sync conference, in all its editions, its main role [00:09:37] is to connect the existing Syrian expertise in [00:09:41] different countries of the world with the expertise available inside Syria. It encourages [00:09:46] Silicon Valley, in America and in other countries, to [00:09:50] visit Syria to attend the conference and to get to know the energies [00:09:53] and expertise available in Syria to provide the information and expertise [00:09:57] they have, so that there will be better interaction with [00:10:01] these experiences. Yes, okay. How can we [00:10:03] move from merely gathering technology professionals [00:10:07] in one conference to building a developed [00:10:11] and sustainable Syrian technical community as well? [00:10:14] In fact, there are many steps that need to be taken [00:10:18] and are being taken to achieve this goal [00:10:21] you mentioned. The Ministry of Communications [00:10:25] and Information has worked hard to support [00:10:28] either business incubators or technical gatherings [00:10:31] and technical communities to be ready [00:10:35] to create the appropriate interaction for technical expertise with global [00:10:38] expertise. We need some legislative amendments [00:10:41] to allow technical startups to work [00:10:45] better. Developing digital infrastructure [00:10:48] is a step. The step of removing sanctions [00:10:52] or the step of striving to remove sanctions, which we have started to see its results in some [00:10:56] places, and we are still waiting for its effects in other [00:10:59] places, are all steps to help the technical [00:11:04] work freely and to work [00:11:07] in the appropriate way, achieving a good income, [00:11:10] providing benefits to the citizen through the use of technology, because all [00:11:14] these things need to be developed in reality. The citizen [00:11:17] still wishes [00:11:21] to use technology better in many aspects, or wishes that [00:11:26] it would serve them in many points. The people who are studying technical fields [00:11:29] still wish that all doors [00:11:32] would be opened to them. However, there are many steps [00:11:36] to reach this point, and this conference is [00:11:39] one of these points. [00:11:45] ideas are innovative and [00:11:49] good, but they do not reach the implementation stage. What [00:11:53] do we need today to transform these ideas into projects that are implemented [00:11:58] context? Awareness. Awareness [00:12:01] of technology and awareness of societal [00:12:04] technical needs play a major [00:12:09] there are still some gaps in the process [00:12:13] of technical awareness that exists. [00:12:16] For example, some technologies, some software, [00:12:20] and some methods are not applicable in Syria [00:12:23] due to sanctions or infrastructure, so those working in this field [00:12:28] they cannot achieve the same result that [00:12:32] someone else in another country achieves. [00:12:35] So this is, I mean, this is one of [00:12:38] in this regard. There are also [00:12:42] legislative and legal challenges. Some laws still [00:12:46] hinder development opportunities, [00:12:49] and all the surrounding countries have experienced this. All countries [00:12:52] suffered from some laws that hindered technical development, [00:12:56] and they went through a long process to be able to [00:13:00] the reality of society and the reality of the citizen, and this is what [00:13:04] we hope for in Syria. Also, the infrastructure, [00:13:07] not just technical, but also [00:13:10] legal, for innovative startups. [00:13:14] Yes, so today, in light of the rapid development of artificial intelligence, [00:13:18] in your opinion, what opportunities can Syrian youth [00:13:21] take advantage of to build technical projects that are able to compete [00:13:25] and keep pace with this rapid development? During the conference, we saw [00:13:28] many Syrian young men and women using artificial intelligence in a professional [00:13:32] way to build distinguished applications or [00:13:36] to simulate [00:13:39] to solve some problems and challenges. [00:13:42] In fact, this is a very big opportunity because [00:13:45] it is globally changing [00:13:49] with solutions and problems. [00:13:52] And Syrian youth, through their knowledge, are trying to [00:13:57] field. They still have some challenges [00:14:01] regarding some sanctions on some programs, [00:14:04] but honestly, I saw a great [00:14:08] ability to overcome these challenges. How are they overcoming them? Some [00:14:12] of them are using accounts from [00:14:15] outside Syria. Some of them are using permitted [00:14:19] software because some artificial intelligence software has become [00:14:22] permitted, and some is not. So they are trying to present [00:14:33] It is necessary to benefit from the expertise of Syrians outside Syria and to connect this expertise. These [00:14:36] conferences have a very [00:14:39] connection. How can we enhance knowledge exchange today between [00:14:43] Syrians outside Syria and inside Syria? The truth is, [00:14:46] what was observed in Sync conferences and during the past period [00:14:50] is the cooperation between the parties [00:14:53] and experts outside Syria [00:14:56] and experts inside Syria. We saw this not only in Sync, but also in [00:15:00] other conferences and other programs, such as [00:15:04] programs. We noticed that experts outside are trying to [00:15:07] help experts inside and are trying to provide them with information. [00:15:11] However, what is distinctive and what we always hear in all these projects [00:15:15] that involve cooperation between experts outside and experts inside is that experts outside say, [00:15:18] "We are learning from experts inside. We are learning from [00:15:22] their methods in solving problems. We are learning from their methods in facing [00:15:26] challenges. We are learning from their methods in facing [00:15:28] the technical [00:15:31] gaps [00:15:33] that exist in Syria, and we are learning from their ability [00:15:39] is what has been repeated always in all the programs where we see [00:15:44] On the other hand, the existing [00:15:47] expertise in Syria, the good thing is that it [00:15:53] increase its knowledge of the methods of experts [00:15:56] abroad in solving the problems they faced [00:16:00] and how they were able to overcome them, so that they [00:16:04] the reality they are living inside Syria. We hope to soon [00:16:08] see a promising and advanced future for technology in Syria [00:16:12] and to truly build a developed and sustainable technical [00:16:15] community. We thank you very much, Mr. Rashid Al-Hamawi, [00:16:18] technology expert. You graced us this morning. Welcome. Welcome to [00:18:49] This is Syria, you are loved. [00:19:53] The graduation of this course embodies an aspect of Syria's [00:19:56] modern vision in empowering the role of women and enhancing [00:20:00] their effective participation in the process of building [00:20:03] and development. [00:20:07] The graduation of this course comes as a new step [00:20:11] in strengthening their presence in police work and opening [00:20:14] the way for them to perform their responsibilities in building the state [00:20:18] and society. Syrian women have presented [00:20:20] a bright image of patience, steadfastness, and sacrifice, [00:20:23] and have proven their ability to bear [00:20:26] responsibility. [00:20:34] You have chosen a path that requires courage, discipline, [00:20:38] and sincerity. Be worthy of this [00:20:40] responsibility. [00:21:25] present in every detail [00:21:26] of our story, on the coffins [00:21:30] of martyrs, and in moments when death [00:21:36] life. [00:21:39] And today, he returns as a witness to our great [00:21:43] victory. [00:21:46] We carry him as children dreaming, [00:21:50] and as adults burdened by the fatigue [00:21:52] of the journey. [00:21:55] We hang him on the windows [00:21:57] of houses. [00:22:00] our shoulders and adorn all [00:22:03] squares with him, so that the story may be complete. [00:23:03] A police tape surrounds the crime [00:23:05] scene, [00:23:08] marking the beginning of the journey to uncover the truth. [00:23:12] A lens documents, [00:23:16] and vigilance precedes the steps. [00:23:23] Organization guides criminal work towards accurate [00:23:27] investigation and institutional [00:23:29] performance, with comprehensive follow-up across [00:23:32] all governorates. [00:23:35] Eyes monitor and search, uncovering [00:23:39] hidden clues so that every saboteur [00:23:41] and perpetrator receives their deserved punishment. [00:23:45] The Criminal Investigations [00:23:47] Law prevails. [00:23:50] A message [00:23:57] achieved in confronting organized and cyber crimes. [00:24:01] A solid international will stands [00:24:05] to dismantle the causes of [00:24:07] crime. Syria enters a new national phase [00:24:11] in which it seeks to rebuild state institutions [00:24:14] on the basis of the rule of law and protection of society. The United [00:24:18] Nations Conference 15 on Crime [00:24:21] Prevention in the Emirati capital, Abu Dhabi, [00:24:25] brings together decision-makers to dismantle security [00:24:28] challenges and establish a new charter for protecting [00:24:33] international event, Syria embodies its vision [00:24:36] and determination to build a state governed [00:24:40] by law. Our conference is held today at a stage [00:24:44] witnessing profound transformations in the nature of crime and the means [00:24:48] of committing it. The Syrian Arab Republic [00:24:51] looks forward to the Abu Dhabi Declaration laying the foundation [00:24:55] for a new phase of international joint action in which [00:24:58] commitments are transformed into practical cooperation. [00:26:32] And the meeting was very [00:26:36] nice. It gave us [00:26:39] a complete and comprehensive picture of how the future [00:26:43] will unfold. [00:27:22] Today, we are at the second Academic Destination Forum. Its goal is [00:27:27] departments so they can choose their specialization correctly. [00:27:29] The student's desire is the basis for their enrollment [00:27:36] رغبه الطالب هي الاساس في دخوله [00:27:38] and creativity. [00:27:46] I heard about the academic efforts and came to see more [00:27:50] specializations. I want to see if I can find something else other than [00:27:52] pharmacy.
