Mariam Al Hammadi, Director General of NAMA, and Raed Kajoor Al Nuaimi, CEO of Alef, signed the MoU.

NAMA will support the group through the “Irteqa” initiative. This initiative focuses on five key areas: corporate purpose, human resources, policies, services, and partnerships. Its goal is to create a more sustainable and impactful work environment.

Mariam Al Hammadi stressed that the partnership represents a model of effective cooperation between the private sector and sustainable development institutions, noting that establishing gender equality is a key driver of innovation and institutional growth.

Raed Kajoor Al Nuaimi explained that this step demonstrates the group’s commitment to its social responsibility and to its environmental, social, and corporate governance strategy, stressing the desire to use NAMA’s expertise to develop talent and build partnerships.

The partnership's executive program will provide introductory and consultative sessions for executive leaders. It will start with a diagnostic assessment based on the “Irteqa” guide to identify strengths and areas for growth. These efforts will result in a detailed report that includes recommendations and a practical roadmap to improve inclusivity and equal opportunities in all the group’s operations and policies over the next year.
