H.E. bin Huwaireb said, ' At MBRF, we are dedicated to playing an active role in
National Reading Month. We are driven by our belief in the transformative power of

knowledge in community development. By conducting events that encourage a reading

culture and inspire generations to explore and engage in continuous learning, we

contribute to realizing the UAE's vision of becoming a thriving global hub for knowledge
and intellectual excellence.”

His Excellency Khalid Al Nuaimi, Director of the Federal Youth Authority,

stated: “The UAE's wise leadership firmly believes that knowledge is one of the

cornerstones for building a highly skilled workforce capable of leading the future and

actively contributing to sustainable development. Consequently, fostering a culture of
reading remains a national priority, with the UAE implementing an ambitious strategy to

integrate reading as a vital part of daily life. This initiative drives progress by cultivating a

creative, inspired society that can adapt to a rapidly changing world. At the Federal Youth

Authority, we recognize the potential of youth in driving change. Additionally, we are
committed to continually providing platforms and opportunities that inspire them to read,

explore, and expand their knowledge in ways that seamlessly align with their evolving

aspirations and needs.”

H.E. Al Nuaimi added: “Youth play a vital role in supporting national goals through

initiatives that create tangible social impact on a global scale. The 'Knowledge Lounge,'
launched by MBRF in Sydney and Melbourne as part of the UAE's National Reading

Month 2025, represents a significant step in encouraging Emirati youth to engage in

intellectual and cultural exchange with the Arab knowledge community. Additionally, it

promotes global creative collaborations, reflecting a steadfast commitment to positioning
reading as a primary source of innovation and development, while inspiring future

generations to succeed in various fields.”
