Sharjah 24: Dr. Mona Al Ali, Manager of the Badiri Education and Development Academy, said: “This momentous occasion is an opportunity for us to reflect on the immense courage of our founding fathers led by late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan and learn from the great sacrifices they made to grow the UAE into the advanced nation it is today. What we have achieved over the past five decades is truly phenomenal and provides us the impetus to strive even further to build a better future for the young generations fuelled by our progress in knowledge and technology.”
“Thanks to our wise leadership who have prioritised building individuals’ capabilities and skillsets, Emirati youth now have access to many opportunities to acquire knowledge and reinforce self-development to face future challenges. In Sharjah, in line with the vision of His Highness Sheikh Dr. Sultan bin Muhammad Al Qasimi, Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Sharjah, and the support of Her Highness Sheikha Jawaher bint Mohammed Al Qasimi, wife of His Highness the Ruler of Sharjah and Chairperson of NAMA Women Advancement, we pride ourselves in creating a conducive ecosystem that allows youth to tap into their talents and advance in fields like STEM, creative industries, technology and women studies and more to contribute to Sharjah’s and UAE’s economy and do our nation proud,” she added.
