Family Development Foundation, and Chairwoman of Motherhood and Childhood Supreme Council. As a
visionary leader, Her Highness has supported and guided Emirati women, even prior to the establishment of

the union. This has helped nurture an environment that is conducive to the growth of women, enabling them
to overcome key challenges, realise their aspirations, and attain high-level positions in various sectors.”

H.E. Al Rumaithi commended the remarkable achievements of Emirati women, which reflects the nation's

commitment to promoting their development. Her Excellency also noted that Emirati women successfully
balance their professional responsibilities as well as personal roles, both of which require great time and

effort, in a society that expects them to perform well in both areas. H.E. Al Rumaithi stated that this is further
demonstrated by their active presence in diverse disciplines, led by greater access to various leadership and

professional roles, positioning them as role models for future generations.

Her Excellency further remarked that FDF strives to consolidate women’s role in society as critical enablers
of family formation and stability. H.E. Al Rumaithi also stated that FDF spearheads initiatives to empower

women, in line with the vision and guidance of H.H. Sheikha Fatima bint Mubarak, ‘Mother of the Nation’,
aimed at empowering and supporting women in all aspects of life, while providing them with the necessary

opportunities to improve their skills and prepare them for leadership positions in various disciplines.
Moreover, Her Excellency said that the foundation aims to nurture a supportive environment that enables

women to succeed professionally, while balancing personal roles, by offering them flexible solutions, and
bolstering their role as architects of the future.
