This study aimed to identify the most essential twenty-first-century skills that Najran University students must possess from the perspective of employers and faculty members. The researchers used a simple random sampling method to select the study sample, which consisted of 219 faculty members (117) and labor market managers (102). Previous studies in scientific journals on twenty-first-century skills were reviewed, and 18 skills were extracted and distributed into 4 basic skills that graduates must possess. Then, the scale's validity and reliability were verified. Subsequently, these skills were approved as the main skills that graduates must focus on and acquire. The study results showed that professional skills and professional ethics score in first place with a percentage of 82.6%, learning and innovation skills in second place with a percentage of 81, digital culture skills in third place with a percentage of 80.6%, and personal and life skills in fourth place with a percentage of 80.2%. The results also showed statistically significant differences at the level of 0.05 between the means of the responses of the study sample members regarding the suitability of the twenty-first-century skills required by Najran University students from the point of view of employers and faculty members. Skills came in favor of the labor market. The study recommended the need to work on empowering university students with twenty-firstcentury skills. Also, cooperation is recommended between the university and the labor market regarding the skills that graduates must acquire, especially with the rapid changes in the labor market.

“…A recent study of public health risk factors relevant to NCDs shows that health systems are under the continual influence of external factors. For example, using corn syrup in food products contributes to excess calorie intake, raising the incidence of NCDs [37]. However, effective interventions such as dietary salt reduction [36] can limit the underlying risk factors for NCDs [38].…”

“…The success of a health system should be measured in terms that include disease prevention and health protection. Nevertheless, health initiatives in the 21st century commonly spend no more than about 3% of their funds on prevention, with the bulk of their efforts going toward clinical problem management [37].…”

Ecosystem degradation and unsustainable use of natural resources, coupled with climate change and other environmental stressors, are putting ecosystem services under threat. Also at risk is the health of citizens who live in damaged environments with polluted air, water and soil. The related dangers to health should give particular cause for concern, especially since most 21st-century health care initiatives involve little spending on prevention and health protection. The rapid rise of China has created new challenges as political-economic drivers (urbanisation, industrialisation, mechanisation, globalisation and modernisation) multiply environmental stressors and caused mounting health problems. While there is a trade-off between ecosystem benefits and economic gain, it is essential to note that a healthy society is better able to deal with challenges as they emerge. There is a need for more investment in the monitoring of environmental stressors and climate change. This research paper addresses some of the health issues arising from environmental changes that prejudice the health and wellbeing of China's people. Along with China's anti-poverty measures, the situation requires multi-sectoral collaboration on multilevels within the health system. It needs to focus on disease prevention, underlying health problems, and contributing elements driven by social-political-economic factors. Such features of China's society and families as rapid population aging, the phenomenon of 'three generations -one roof' (elderly people, their children and grandchildren) as well as migration (rural-urban, urban-urban) need to be considered. The global challenge of the current COVID-19 pandemic is a wake-up call showing the need to pay more attention to the complexity of the system. There is a need to be conscious that the state of the ecosystem can change 'unexpectedly' and 'unannounced' in response to environmental change, causing 'undesirable' loss of ecological and economic resources and threatening the most basic need of the present generation, 'food and shelter' security.

“…The installation of emergency in public hospitals in an area is necessary for the medical treatment of emergency patients who need immediate healthcare. On the other hand, to seek treatment quickly for the patients who perform the medication in the installation, it is necessary for health professionals who can overcome health problems in the societies [4]. However, a less of healthcare professionals, such as professional nurses, is undoubtedly a barrier to patients who need treatment quickly.…”
