Sheikh Mansour remarked, “Culture and creativity are fundamental pillars of the UAE's vision and approach to development. They represent the essence of our national identity and the cultural openness that defines the nation. They also form a strategic priority for soft power, which enhances the UAE's global standing, forges new connections worldwide, and contributes to the development of societies.”
Sheikh Mansour added, “The UAE Order for Culture and Creativity is a prestigious recognition for an inspiring elite, whose achievements reinforce this vital focus. This honour is motivation to creatives to continue their contributions, which solidify the UAE's cultural and humanitarian status and maximise the role of our culture, creativity, and national pride in our nation's development journey.”
A national initiative organised by the Ministry of Culture, the UAE Order for Culture and Creativity is the UAE's highest cultural honour, celebrates exceptional talents whose artistic and creative contributions have significantly enriched the UAE's cultural landscape and elevated its influence on both regional and international platforms.
