(Office of Her Majesty – Press Department – Aqaba) - Her Majesty Queen Rania Al Abdullah, accompanied by Their Royal Highnesses Princess Iman bint Abdullah II and Princess Salma bint Abdullah II, met on Thursday with a group of young people who have utilized their unique passions and skills to launch income-generating projects.

In a meeting held at the House of Roses Ladies Association in Aqaba, Her Majesty heard from the young men and women about their experiences running income-generating projects, and how they market their products and plan to grow their businesses.

Rather than waiting for traditional employment opportunities to arise, the young people explained that they chose to invest the limited funds they had into their own small projects, each of which has succeeded by creating products that meet the demands of the local market.

During the meeting, the young people thanked Her Majesty for her interest and support, highlighting Aqaba’s potential as a home for even more ideas for small businesses.
