Sheikh Hamdan Bin Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai, Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Defence, and Chairman of Dubai Executive Council, affirmed that the leadership places the highest priority on strengthening family values and fostering social cohesion, while ensuring that all necessary resources and support are made available to build a thriving and prosperous Emirati society.

Reviewing the outcomes of the Sheikha Hind Bint Maktoum Family Programme, Sheikh Hamdan emphasised that Dubai's development vision has always placed people at its very heart.

Launched in September 2023 by the Community Development Authority (CDA) in Dubai to empower Emirati families and reinforce social stability through a comprehensive set of initiatives, the programme facilitates a host of benefits including avenues for psychological and social support, financial literacy, and direct assistance in meeting housing and other expenses incurred by new couples.

Sheikh Hamdan applauded the success of the Sheikha Hind Bint Maktoum Family Programme in reinforcing the foundations of social stability by supporting and empowering Emirati families through a series of integrated and high-impact initiatives.

The programme aligns with the expansive vision outlined for various social empowerment programmes and their role in creating a lasting positive impact that supports the goals of the Dubai Social Agenda 33.
