A presidential program to rehabilitate youth aims to prepare the young generation to assume leading posts, a presidential source said Tuesday.

The program, launched by President Abdel Fattah El Sisi during a meeting with university youth Sunday, is meant to help youth develop a strategy and a vision through studying administrative, political and humanitarian sciences, the source said, noting that the program targets all youth regardless of their political affiliations.

He made it clear that applying for the program should start on September 20 on a website designed for the purpose.

Interested graduates under the age of 30 are invited to attend the eight-month program, which secures seats for 2,500 youth annually, the source said
