Chairperson speech

The UAE enjoys high rates of family stability and security. We look at this as an achievement that must be maintained and taken to the   next level through the concerted efforts of all competent social institutions and the development of the necessary mechanisms to care for the child and the family. without family, society would not have established, projects would not have taken place, civilizations would not have found, and the highest values and principles of life would not have prevailed.

As we always say, the family is the first school in which the seeds of growth, development, and education are brought up. Therefore, we must all work hard and make every effort to protect this school – the family. Every member of the family is required to shoulder his responsibility to protect his family and perform his duties that help strengthen the role of the family in his community and achieve family stability and cohesion, as these values play a pivotal role in the prosperity of societies. I hope that our families in the UAE society will remain safe, armed with its faith and its great responsibilities in building homelands and life.
