The Executive Committee of the Forum was keen to name each annual meeting after one of the pioneers who laid the first building blocks of the Forum. The thirty-sixth meeting was in the name of the late Dr. Osama Abdul Rahman, and the thirty-seventh meeting was in the name of the late Mr. Abdullah Al-Ghanim. These pioneers were known for their keenness and interest in the affairs of development and the development of their societies. They contributed to the forum’s reunion in its annual meetings, and they are proud of its activities and those in charge of it, and they had a role in supporting the national and Gulf culture, and they made efforts to support the forum and maintain its continuity.
