               UAE, and Ruler of Dubai, in which he said: “May God bless your marriage, and may you create a

               new, cohesive Emirati family that is filled with love and kindness while upholding best morals.

               May your family serve as the centre of blessings, compassion, and generosity in our community.
               God be with you.”


               H.E stated: “The wisdom shared by Their Highnesses transcend beyond mere moments; they are
               worthy of thoughtful contemplation. Based on the principles that  cherish  familial bonds and

               stability, these words serve as a foundation for fostering healthy and coherent families. Through

               their guidance,  a  sophisticated community can  be established that is empowered  to achieve
               greatness,  contributing meaningfully to the sustainability  of  our societal fabric  and  the

               advancement of our nation.”

               Al Rumaithi emphasised  that the diligent efforts  being  made by  the Ministry of Community

               Development across governmental, federal, and local levels, reflect governmental directives aimed

               at converting challenges into opportunities. Upholding a steadfast belief in the pivotal role of the
               family  as the  cornerstone  for a unified,  inclusive,  and secure  homeland, the  Ministry has

               implemented numerous  policies, legislations and regulations  while spearheading  visionary
               initiatives and services. Additionally, she highlighted the vital role played by the Department of

               Community Development (DCD) - Abu Dhabi, serving as the authoritative entity entrusted with
               implementing the social sector strategy within the emirate. Aligned with its well-defined strategy

               aimed towards  enhancing  service  quality  and  fostering a cohesive  society, the DCD remains

               committed to elevating the overall quality of life for families.

               She added: “We  congratulate  the Department  of Community  Development  for  launching the

               'Medeem' initiative,’  which encourages  the  formation and  growth of the  UAE’s  families  and
               contributes to facilitating marriage planning through a range of programs and services.  These

               initiatives  promote familial unity  in accordance  with  authentic Emirati values,  as well as  the

               objectives of the Abu Dhabi Family Quality Strategy.”

               Moreover, H.E commended the endeavours of FDF for its commitment to pursue the path laid out

               by H.H. Sheikha Fatima bint Mubarak, ‘Mother of the Nation’, since its inception in 2006. This
               dedication is aimed at realising Her  Highness’s visionary aspirations for  fostering stability,
