Youth living in countries in the midst of conflicts or wars seem to be devastated, demotivated and worried about their future. Their discouragement is due to the negative ramifications that conflicts have on education and the economy. As a matter of fact, with conflict comes uncertainty about employment opportunities, continuity of education, educational attainment and impoverishment. However, history provides a rather optimistic economic and educational outlook to the future of war-torn countries.

The aim of our analysis is to guarantee to youth in the Arab world that a brighter future is ahead of them, and to encourage them to have hope of a prosperous future.
