Kuwait’s Derasti university fair has achieved a Guinness World Records attendance milestone after welcoming more than 31,000 students over three days, according to the Ministry of Education.
Education Minister Sayed Jalal Al-Tabtabaei received the organisers on 12 November, when they presented the Guinness certificate. The ministry described the achievement as a world record for university-fair attendance.
Helping students choose their next step
The minister praised the organisers for creating a place where students could explore academic opportunities and university specialisations before making decisions about their education and careers.
The announcement is a new milestone for the sixth edition of the fair, which Gulf Good News covered at its opening in Mishref.
