Citizens voice heard

Building a cohesive community

The "Yalsatna" initiative is an extension of the Sharjah Districts Affairs Department (SDAD) directives aimed at building a cohesive community based on dialogue and active participation. It contributes to identifying priorities and formulating future visions that meet residents' aspirations.

During the meeting, a range of topics of interest to residents were discussed, including the area's service needs and observations. Several ideas and suggestions were also presented by residents aimed at developing the suburb's community environment.
