Local Economy & Energy Transition: Kuwait is also moving on hydrogen/LNG priorities via a ministry panel, while the Ministry of Oil highlights offshore work aimed at expanding reserves and building digital/AI capabilities. Consumer & Food Security: Kuwait’s consumer cooperative union launches a summer employment and training program for Kuwaiti students, and the commerce ministry sets up a central committee to monitor commodity prices.
