A princess from Saudi Arabia is set to speak at a forum in Hong Kong next week about how to further develop Asia’s philanthropy drive.
Princess Nouf bint Muhammad bin Abdullah will visit the city to deliver a talk at the Philanthropy for Better Cities Forum 2024, which will be held by the Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust and take place from September 9 to 10.
Her speech next Tuesday will focus on “unleashing the power of Asian philanthropy” and she will be joined by Nippon Foundation executive director Ichiro Kabasawa, Piramal Foundation CEO Aditya Natraj and Dr Gabriel Leung, executive director, charities and community of the Hong Kong Jockey Club.
The Saudi princess also serves as CEO of the King Khalid Foundation, a leading non-profit organisation in her country that focuses on localising sustainable development, the socio-economic empowerment of vulnerable groups and environmental sustainability.
In 2020, she chaired the Civil 20 Engagement Group during the Saudi Arabia G20 Presidency.
Bint Muhammad also serves as chairwoman of the Saudi ADHD Society and is a board member of the government’s Family Affairs Council.
