Statement by H.E. Dr. Ahmad Saeed bin Meshar, SLC Secretary General,
on Mother’s Day 2026
20 March 2026 - Mother’s Day represents both a humanitarian and national occasion through
which we express our deep appreciation for the vital role of mothers in building the family,
strengthening social stability, and instilling the authentic values that underpin the UAE’s
comprehensive development journey. This year’s celebration coincides with the directives of our
wise leadership to designate 2026 as the Year of the Family, a national initiative that places
mothers at its very core as the essential pillar and enduring cornerstone of efforts to build a
cohesive and interconnected society.
On this occasion, the Supreme Legislation Committee in the Emirate of Dubai (SLC) reaffirms its
commitment to advancing legislative frameworks that foster a healthy balance between family,
professional, and social responsibilities, in line with the UAE’s approach to empowering women,
particularly mothers. On Mother’s Day, we extend our highest regards and sincere felicitations to
Her Highness Sheikha Fatima bint Mubarak, Mother of the Nation, Chairwoman of the General
Women’s Union, President of the Supreme Council for Motherhood and Childhood, and Supreme
Chairwoman of the Family Development Foundation, as well as to Emirati mothers and mothers
around the world, in recognition of their enduring dedication and vital role in nurturing
generations and shaping the future.
