“I am very proud of the efforts of the National Identity and Tolerance Clubs at universities and colleges to develop

leadership qualities and productive community work among male and female students. This is within the framework of

embodying the authentic student spirit, which is based on good morals, positive interaction, and good behaviour. This

Sheikh Nahyan bin Mubarak lauded the youth’s awareness of their responsibilities as role models, urging them to

to develop the important capabilities and skills of their members, including a clear vision of the goal, the ability to work
with others, and a desire to achieve and excel in creativity and innovation, in addition to being equipped with good

morals and a commitment to human values and principles.

“In this endeavour, we have a good example, clearly embodied in the words and actions of President His Highness

the state’s journey in all fields.”

Sheikh Nahyan bin Mubarak encouraged the youth to maintain a clear vision for the future, define purposeful goals,
