"Mostafa truly inspired the young leaders of Mosaic’s International Leadership Programme.

A humble and captivating speaker, we were honoured to have Mostafa attend." - Debra, Head of International, Mosaic
Our students need Arab role models to inspire them to greater heights and more diverse goals that they presently know exists for them. They need to find their creativity and have their imagination let loose by the experiences of someone they can identify with and who has seen the world from a perspective few of us have ever seen. They need to know that they are not limited by video games and idolised football stars; to know that, while the internet is a valuable thing, it is not the reason but merely a tool. In short, our students need to know that dreams are worthwhile because they are attainable and that they in turn can be role models for others. We believe that Mr. Salameh is utterly qualified to provide our students with an experience that would be one of those moments that could change the course of a life." - Wesgreen International School, Sharjah
