Abu Dhabi, UAE – Dr. Mira Al Kaabi, Acting President of the National Academy for Child Development, said on the occasion of UAE Children’s Day, “What we instill in our children bears fruit in the strength, cohesion and progress of society”. Child development is not limited to the family, but rather is a comprehensive national responsibility in which efforts are integrated to ensure a safe and stimulating environment that ensures balanced development in its cognitive, psychological and social dimensions.
An advanced system in children’s rights
The UAE has established an advanced system that promotes children’s rights and preserves their well-being.
This is based on a firm awareness that the strength of beginnings determines the quality of paths in later stages. This approach embodies the vision of the wise leadership, which sees investing in children as the cornerstone of building human capital capable of continuing the path of sustainable development.
In this context, enhancing specialized knowledge in the field of childhood, building the capabilities of cadres working with children and their families, and consolidating evidence-based practices and the best standards remain an essential pillar to ensure a solid start for every child and enable him to have a promising future.
