5/20/24, 10:04 AM The Parliamentary Assembly of the Mediterranean honors the Executive Director of Watani Al Emarat Foundation
accolade recognises the foundation's exceptional efforts in empowering Emirati youth and enhancing
their understanding of parliamentary government work. The foundation’s notable achievements in this
direction include the launch of the "Young Parliamentarians Program," which embodies the UAE’s
commitment to nurturing youth and fostering their capabilities to become future leaders.

Launched at the beginning of 2023, the "Young Parliamentarians Program" is a pioneering initiative
designed to support youth involvement in parliamentary work and strengthen the relationship between
the people and their leadership. The program aims to cultivate a foundation of young people equipped
for parliamentary roles, contributing to political empowerment, and increasing political awareness

among Emirati youth. It also seeks to elevate the role of Emirati youth in political development, inspire
them to become leaders in parliamentary work, and encourage field research while incorporating best
global practices in youth parliamentary engagement.
