At the Ministry of Community Empowerment, we embody the principle of empowerment as a fundamental pillar in achieving sustainable social development. We adopt an integrated strategy that focuses on transforming our approach from a short-term service ministry focused on providing social assistance and subsidies to a long-term development ministry focused on social and economic integration and empowerment. This is achieved through radical change and transformation of the social contract, stimulating economic production, and developing proactive policies and programs with a sustainable social impact.
In this spirit, we at the Ministry of Community Empowerment have worked to develop a participatory approach that believes in the capabilities of every individual in society, while unifying efforts with our partners at all levels. This aims to launch sustainable pioneering programs, initiatives, and services that contribute to empowering individuals and the third sector, and enhance shared responsibility and belonging in society. Inspired by the vision, approach, and strategies of the UAE government, we are shaping a new transformational roadmap for the social sector, keeping pace with rapid global changes and ensuring a sustainable improvement in the quality of life for all members of society.
