In today’s rapidly evolving world, roles, responsibilities and expectations are constantly changing, especially for women. Acquiring leadership positions and playing an integral part in this process of evolution is no longer a matter of choice but a vital necessity. Every member of our society is required to contribute to making the world a better place.
As key players in the country’s progress, UAE women have made exceptional contributions. However, it is our responsibility to establish the right infrastructure and platform to ensure and sustain the rich dividends of their amazing success. Through endorsing appropriate policies and providing life-long opportunities for training and work, we can help women maintain a balance between their professional and family lives. Such initiatives like the Establishment will nurture a competent generation of future women leaders to celebrate their potential and success.
The Dubai Women Establishment initiative aims to play a pioneering role in promoting women roles across the GCC countries. Its long-term regional objectives include launching a regional report that measures and evaluates the success of women in the region.
