Dubai: The National CSR Fund - MAJRA and the Authority of Social Contribution -
Ma’an joined forces to advance social innovation through the 10th and 11th
cohorts of the Ma’an Social Incubator (MSI) program and the Zuleya initiative.
This collaboration marks a significant step forward in strengthening national
social partnerships by delivering innovative solutions that address community
needs.
The MSI program is dedicated to supporting social entrepreneurs and social
initiatives that have a significant societal impact. It fosters a conducive
environment for the development of impactful projects that address the social
priorities of community groups and individuals. Additionally, it aims to raise
awareness about the significance of social initiatives in achieving sustainable
development goals (SDGs). Meanwhile, the Zuleya initiative seeks to enrich
cultural and artistic awareness within the community through workshops and art
exhibitions, revitalising the Emirati heritage and promoting national identity.
Both the MSI program and Zuleya initiative have been awarded the Verification
stamp, recognising their alignment with UAE national priorities, SDGs, and their
positive societal impact.
His Excellency Abdullah Al Saleh, the Undersecretary of the Ministry of Economy
and the Vice Chairman of MAJRA’s Board of Trustees, stated that the
collaboration between MAJRA and Ma’an exemplifies cross-sector cooperation
and demonstrates a shared commitment to strengthening national projects and
initiatives that foster social cohesion and sustainable development. “This move
contributes to the enhancement of collaborative efforts aimed at encouraging
social innovation and sustaining impactful projects and programs, all while
empowering the community-focused work system,” H.E. Al Saleh added.
This partnership reflects the dedication of both the parties to achieving the
national goals outlined in the ‘We the UAE 2031’ vision by strengthening the
role of government and community sectors in promoting sustainable
development.
