The event commenced with the Yemeni National Anthem, followed by a speech delivered by the head of the Yemeni Forum , Engineer Waleed Al-Dahbali. In his speech, he emphasized that the mission of the Yemeni Forum extends beyond providing services and consultations to the community members; it also includes strengthening national identity and entrenching republican values through national and social activities and events.

The occasion featured an awareness seminar entitled:

“September 26: From the Memory of the Revolution to the Question of the State”

The seminar’s topics were presented by Dr. Tariq Al-Kaldi and Ms. Tahani Al-Amari, and moderated by Engineer Osama Al-Khazan. It addressed several important issues related to Yemen’s history and the September Revolution, the role of Yemeni women in the journey of national struggle, and the challenges facing the project of building the state and the republic.

The event was also distinguished by the participation of children and youth of the diaspora through speeches and national poems that expressed their pride in the immortal September Revolution and its republican values, reaffirming the connection of Yemeni generations in the diaspora to their homeland and national identity.

Participants stressed the importance of commemorating national occasions among Yemeni communities abroad, as they represent an opportunity to introduce the new generations to the history of their homeland, strengthen values of belonging, and preserve the Yemeni identity.

At the conclusion of the event, the Yemeni Forum in Belgium extends its sincere thanks and appreciation to the Yemeni Restaurant in Brussels, represented by Sheikh Omar Al-Humaiqani, for his generous support and contribution to the success of this national occasion.
